sadness today

My friend and pastor, Dwayne Harms, died yesterday morning, after a brief and painful struggle with renal cancer. I've cried a lot, with Brian, and my kids, and there will be more tears shed over the next few days. I miss Dwayne a great deal...he and I shared the same sense of humour, and he encouraged me to continue in drama, something I've always loved.
Now I need to begin training, to follow through on the promise I made to Dwayne; I am going to run the Cancer 5K run next May, in honour of my friend's incredible bravery and dignity throughout his illness.
Dwayne has a great blog, please check it out
