Tribute to my brother

Today is the day I am choosing to write a little bit as a remembrance of my brother, Timothy Mitchell Leira, who suddenly passed over to the arms of Jesus on April 18, 2010 at age 55.

As my thought process unfolds I trust God will continue the healing and give the comfort He promised in Luke 9:11 and Psalms 86:17.

I want to say a grateful "thank you" to all who came to the memorial service, either for me or Linda. It meant alot to me. 2nd Corinthians 7:6 says "Nevertheless God, that comforts those that are cast down, comforts us by the coming of Titus." God sent comfort via family and friends, cards and calls.

~ Fishing with Pappa and Mamma on Honeymoon Island. Hot hazy days but together doing a family outing.

~ On hot summer nights Tim and I would lay in the street, gaze at the stars overhead, and now, thankful that the street, back then was never busy! I don't remember any conversations on those nights, but probably wasn't any!

~ Forts built in the 7 acre woods we lived on, always trying to tag along when big brother visited with his friends.....

~ Tim prayed with me the salvation prayer so long ago. I am glad that "he cared enough to give the very best". Christ.

~ Music. It was a big part in his life. He had a rock band for alot of years. He played the guitar most excellently and could sing. He passed down these gifts to his daughter Stephanie.

~ He love the water. To fish with his family. Honeymoon Island is where they always visited to fish or relax.

One day we will meet again, that is a promise!
