More to come.

Dear Friends and Family. I will be sharing with you the last weeks of Danene's life. I will share what we went through, how “God Showed Her Compassion and Mercy” during her death. “How God’s Plan is Perfect”. “How a Loving Wife Completed Her Husband”. From my heart as a husband “Are You Loving Your Wife” and “What Would You Do…If, Would You Know”. If God calls me to write more I will let myself be lead to do so.

I love you all and thankful for the prayers and encouragements you all have showed our family and my loving wife Danene.

Please come with me as the journey continues. With God’s Help  the Edalgo’s will Endure.

In Gods Service, Matt

Not the End, But just the beginning of Life Everlasting with Christ
