Eulogy to Shyrl

My neighbor died yesterday, and as I process the change, I’m remembering three gifts she’s given me. One is her answer to the “How are you?” greeting common in my culture. Instead of saying “Fine” or “Good” like everyone else, she always said, “Blessed,” meaning, Blessed by God. Two is her testimony of God healing her from being in a wheelchair. Three is asking me to serve her.

Think of someone from your life. What good has that person given you? And what good will you pass on to others?
