Our Sympathies to Marilyn Moll & family
This came in my email today and I asked Chas to post it. Marilyn has posted here on the Front Porch from time to time and sponsored giveaways as well. Please keep Marilyn and her children in your prayers!

Dear Friends, Readers and Customers,
With the deepest sorrow imaginable, I must tell you my dear husband Duane passed away
suddenly and unexpectedly Sunday night. We are all in grief and shock as he was only 56
years old and we had no indications ahead of time.
The Urban Homemaker will continue to serve all your needs for products and information in the Spirit of Titus 2. The Urban Homemaker started out as my hobby and later turned into our family business through Duane's vision and hard work.
My assistants Sandy Tuin and Laura Rogers will do their best to continue a high level of service in the meantime. I expect to return to the office next week. Please be patient with our transition.
My children have grown up in the business and will be able to help me carry on with the highest level of service you have come to expect.
My daughter Laura is flying home from Iraq as I write. She has a very long almost two day flight, prayers are appreciated for her as well.
I am totally unprepared to becoming a widow at the relatively young age of 56. Duane was a wonderful husband and daddy and will be desperately missed by myself, my children, my church family, and you my customers.
I have written you all twice in the last year about how life is fragile, embrace with thanksgiving the smallest of everyday blessings. Unfortunately, now it is my turn to understand in a personal way the truth of these words.
Your prayers for a smooth transition and God's provision are most appreciated. Cards can be directed to our PO Box 72, Paonia, CO 81428.
With deep sorrow and grief,
Marilyn Moll
The Urban Homemaker

I will be praying for you and your family. I can truthfully say that I know what you are going through because on april first my daddy passed away unexpectedly. He was only 68, a bit older than your husband, but still seemingly healthy with no indications of anything wrong. It is still very painful two weeks later, but we are making it through with the help and support of family, friends, and church.
I will keep you and your family in my prayers.
God Bless,
Nancy

Dear Marilyn,
I'm so sorry to hear of your sorrow. I was just mixing up your bread recipe which has been such a blessing to our family, and used the time to pray for you and for God to comfort you and your family.

Oh I am so sorry! I can remember speaking with your husband a few years ago when placing an order! He is only a few years older than my husband! I pray the Lord with support you in this time and in your future.
