I miss you Dana!

I'm in TOTAL shock tonight after finding out that a dear friend of mine from my past has gone on to be with the Lord. Now I know why the emails I sent her bounced back and she didn't return my calls. We had lost touch and I was trying to reconnect with her. I Googled her name this evening and found this:

Dana Lynn Schaadt, 44, of Shawnee, KS., passed away Wednesday, November 5, 2008 at her home.
Dana was born May 16, 1964 in Larned, Kansas. She graduated from the University of Kansas. Dana was blessed with an extraordinary ability to care for others. Always sharing her joy for life in an outgoing and graceful way. She was a beautiful daughter, sister, aunt, mother, wife and a friend to all she met. Tender and steadfast she was a faithful child of God and light to everyone she knew. She was a reader, lover of poetry and country girl at heart and will be sorely missed.
Dana is survived by her loving husband, Michael, two sons, Christopher Michael and Corey Jefferson Schaadt, of the home. Her parents, Ronald and Mary Bryant, Lee’s Summit, Missouri, two sisters and their husbands, Noelle & Grant Beck, Leawood, Kansas, and Marla & Chris Johnson, Lee’s Summit, Missouri, her nieces and nephews, godchildren, and her many dear friends.

You are dearly missed Dana!

Gone too soon...
