True Angels
Carrie Tynan
Several Months ago a Dear friend
passed away who had such an angelic loving spirit. I admired her
courage and strength a great deal. This ladies name is Cindy
Greschaw for many years she battled Arthritis. Even though
Arthritis Caused Cindy to be wheel chair bond and needing daily help to
Care for her self she always had a positive attitude. Whenever
I walked into a room she would be sitting with a big smile ready to talk
the day away. She would give me a hug ready to hear what was going on with
me. She never complained about her health problems or pain. She focused
on what was good in her life such as family and friends. Cindyćs husband
Randy was her main caregiver. He took care of all her needs making sure
she was happy and safe. Being a caregiver can be a very stressful
job especially caring for a loved One. I have a great respect for
friends; family members and co-workers who care for love ones. It
takes a special caring strong person to do this job.
Cindy and Randy were also very lucky to have very supportive
friends and church community. People were delivering meals, and visiting
with Cindy. She also lived a very active life from being taken shopping,
to lunch and hair appointments. This outpouring of love and generosity
Cindy and Randy receives is a perfect example of what Christmas spirit
is about. It is not about receiving gifts or the amount of
gifts received. It is about helping your fellow neighbor and showing affection
to loved ones. It is an amazing feeling to have after helping
some one and no materialistic gift can beat it.
