No More Pain 5/3/2012

Dear praying friends, we share these latest updates with a heavy heart for the family of Catherine Hudson. We thank the Lord for His promise of eternal life. While we understand that Catherine is no longer experiencing pain, we weep with her family left here on this earth. May God's grace and comfort keep their hearts through the difficult time ahead.

Below is an update from Catherine's brother-in-law:

Please pray for Matt, the kids and the rest of the family as Catherine went to be with her Lord tonight. Please, be respectful to the family and consider their privacy in this situation. No plans have been made so please refrain from contacting family with any questions. We will update the group once things have been settled. Again, thank you all for your prayers! We know that Catherine is no longer suffering and is enjoying Heaven, but again ask that the emotions and privacy of family be taken into consideration.

Catherine Hudson

Below is the note from Matt Hudson, her husband:

"This evening, May 3, 2012, at 8:49 pm, Catherine Hudson went home to Heaven!
She was a loving wife, mother, daughter, daughter-in-law, aunt, friend and most of all a great Christian. Her love for her family, and friends was only exceeded by her love for the Lord Jesus. She was always concerned about others. Her life has touched so many people, and I was privileged to have been her husband for 17 and a half wonderful years. God has certainly been good!

She will be greatly missed!!! We don't pretend to understand what the Lord is doing or trying to do through this, but we are trusting Him and striving to bring glory to His name through it all. That is exactly what Catherine would want. She lived to please the Lord!

Thank you especially for praying for her during the last 2 months. We appreciate all of the thoughts and prayers relayed to us through the many e-mails and cards. I read each card to her, even as she lay the last 12 days in a coma in the ICU. You have been a blessing. Thank you!


Please pray for Daniel, Rachel and Deborah. They miss their "momma".


I will let you know of the funeral arrangements as soon as possible.


Sincerely,


Matt Hudson"
