As most of you know, my grandmother (mom's mom) has been sick over the past 2 years. She was diagnosed with colon cancer and we were told she should have a very good Christmas in 2006 because it was taking over her body rapidly. She fought and fought over the next 2 years. In the past few weeks, she began getting very weak. She had a stroke a couple of weekends ago and could barely use the right side of her body. She was having trouble swallowing. She fought a tough battle. We miss her dearly, but we are glad she is feeling 100% better and she, papaw, and memaw Chris can watch over us and be our guardian angels. She passed away Monday, August 4, 2008 at 7:10 a.m. Her three daughters and our family doctor were there beside her. She had the support of her family every day and we truly believe she knew that. The services will be Wednesday, August 6, 2008 at Lakewood Funeral Home at 2:00. Visitation begins at 12:00.
Also, God was watching over our family because my sister (PJ) works at Community Bank off of Lakeland right next to I-55. The bank was robbed at gunpoint yesterday about 45 minutes after she left the bank. God knew she couldn't handle the stress... and we just thank Him for watching over her. There were a lot more details, but go to clarionledger.com or wlbt.com and read/watch the stories. No one was hurt, but please pray that the bank employees get through the difficult situation.
Needless to say... yesterday was a stressful day for the Tullos and extended family. We have our loving family and great friends to help us through it all.
