Three sisters

About a year ago I was in the hall of LTC (loving Tender Care). One of the clients who was living there loved Bingo and her sister had just moved in. They were both down the 600 wing. On this particular day the 3rd sister (who lived in "The Estates"), which is attached to LTC) came to play Bingo also. I was very touched seeing these three older gals together, all in their 90's, smiling...
so I asked if I could take there picture.

I showed the picture to my three girls. I told them of all the things that would make me the happiest, first would be that they continue to grow and learn in their faith in Jesus Christ and second would be that they would stay close - even in their 90's.

Through the months I got to know these three ladies and "The Estates" sister then moved into long term care about 3 months ago also. They had been from a family of seven, six girls and a boy. Of the seven kids, Lilly, Violet, and Calla were the oldest... they stayed close all of their lives. Raising their families together, playing cards together, going to church together, grocery shopping and calling each other every day.
They all three lived in the same town, had the same phone company - no long distance or skyping for them... they actually saw each other or talked to each other every single day of their lives. I think it is quite amazing that these three stayed close - and they are the only ones living out of their family.
But now... Lilly passed away with her two sisters at her side
..................and a week later
...........Violet passed away with her sister at her side...
and today when I went to work
...........Calla was very sad, missing her sisters, realizing how much time does she have left here?
Down the halls of the widows wing...
dreaming
of the days when she was with her sisters!
