Ashley Woolwine Obituary, Death – I am writing this request with a heavy heart for prayers on behalf of one of my beautiful great nieces, Ashley Smith Woolwine, whose husband went away suddenly yesterday. As I stand here, my thoughts are rushing, my heart is heavy, and I am far away. There is a group of people in the Tri-State area who are behind her. The pain that is present in her voice, as well as in the voice of her mother and the voice of my sister, is difficult to hear.
There are no genuine words of comfort, and there are not enough flowers, casseroles, or cakes that can alleviate the shock, sorrow, preparation of funerals, or the final hour of laying that loved one to rest… The days that lie ahead… the side of the bed that is vacant, the absence of calls and texts, the absence of a voice calling you by that pet name, baby, honey, and the absence of any physical contact from that spouse.
Your universe of love, which is filled with becomes silent. You then have to go through the experience of hearing the things that other people say, some of which are unpleasant, and then there is always someone who wants something from the widow or widower. I could write a lot of paragraphs in text… Eventually, I am aware that the shock and some of the pain will subside here and there…
On the other hand, all widows and widowers are aware of the path that lies ahead… in conclusion, please pray for Ashely. She and TJ have a daughter together, Jordan, in addition to three other wonderful daughters. A deep love has developed between our families over time. Susan, TJ’s mother, Kevin, his stepfather, his biological father, who is ailing, and TJ’s ex-wife, who will also need to assist her three daughters, are all involved in this situation.
The list could go on and on. These unanticipated occurrences simply leave us feeling numb. Even now, I’m not sure if this post is appropriate. Nevertheless, I am confident that our Lord will bear her burden and protect her… No one is unaware of the efficacy of prayer.
