The Lord Giveth
/
And the Lord taketh away. It is with immense sadness that I report the passing of our youngest granddaughter, Prisca Wilavene Luecht. She left this world Thursday evening, June 15th.
From what I understand at this point, it was Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), which affects approximately 2,300 children annually in the US. It primarily affects babies under 12 months of age, but is more prevalent at 1-4 months. Causes are unknown, but, for some reason, the child simply stops breathing. The blessing of health and family is all too often taken for granted, especially when we live in a country of such safety and plenty. We must never assume that the Lord is finished leading us through new challenges. We do have comfort in knowing that Prisca is safe and secure in our Father’s arms, and that we will be reunited with her in the future. This is your reminder to hug your children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, parents, and grandparents often!
