Sunday we laid Dad to rest right next to Mom. It was a cold, but sunny day. The service was beautiful and Dad would have been pleased to see his friends and family in attendance. We know because of the cold weather and the holidays, many who would have liked to attend could not. Therefore, … Continue reading Dad’s Eulogy

Mom’s Eulogy
Mom was a woman of many talents. An organizer extraordinaire. A fabulous cook. A deep thinker. A hospitality queen. A servant and lover of people. An encourager. A follower of Christ. An empathetic ear. A noticer of details. A lover of color and design. And a memory maker. One life contains so many layers, doesn’t … Continue reading Mom’s Eulogy
I am a Speaker
I never knew I was a writer. Until a newspaper editor put “Michelle Gunnin is a writer.” in my byline for an article I wrote, I had no idea. I put ideas on paper, but in my mind, that didn’t make me a real writer (whatever a real writer looks like). It was just thoughts. … Continue reading I am a Speaker
Celebration of Life
There are some friendships that stand the test of time. The kind that pick up right where they left off and never get stale.

Our culture is okay with this because we all live … Continue reading Dis-appointment

Betty’s Cherry Tree
This what I shared at Betty"s Memorial Service. Several people asked me for a copy so I am posting it here. Feel free to share.

NOW is the Time
I was at a retreat this weekend and during worship I heard the Lord speak to my heart. It was for the parents in the room, and several requested a copy. As I was writing it up, I thought it might also be for other World Race parents…but then I thought it might be for … Continue reading NOW is the Time
