UPDATE: Read Missey's Obituary HERE
I just want to say that by the outpouring I have seen on Missey's blog, I just know that the homeschool community is going to want to bless this family abundantly financally as well (details below). Missey gave A LOT to the homeschool community. She gave out of herself. Myself - I've been blessed, no doubt, by the love she had for Ruth Beechick's methods and what she freely passed on to those on the list. My heart feels bruised today, and I am nobody -- I cannot imagine what those are going through who are really close to Missey. I want to know "what can I do." Thankfully there is something - someway to help Missey's family out, and give back a small portion of what she gave to us. Those who cannot give financially at this time, I am certain your prayers, and continued prayers of all, are most needed.
Here is the latest in a cut and pasted email from the Beechick list: (Especially note that you can donate to the family.)
Latest Update:
For those who want to make financial donations, it would be greatly appreciated by the family. We have set up a memorial fund at Paypal.
The baby is doing fine and may go home tomorrow. They had a name picked out for the baby but changed it after they lost Missey. They named her Melissa
Kate and she weighs 5 lb, 1 oz. and is doing quite well.
Many have also asked for an address to send cards. We are setting up a P.O.Box for this tomorrow and will give you that information as soon as it comes
available. A member of Missey's local homeschool group is taking care of this and mail will be sent in care of her. More details on this Friday.
Also check http://www.homeschoolblogger.com tomorrow for a tribute to Missey. The outpouring of comments on her blog is just amazing http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/HeartSchooling/92338/.
