Safely In the Arms of Jesus

Hello all,
My lovely wife Patrica J. Cerasa, lost her fight with ovarian cancer at 12:34 PM yesterday and went safely to the arms of Jesus and all of those in her family that have gone before her. Her family was by her side right up to the end. I will miss her terribly. Please pray for her soul and for all of us left behind.

Peace be with you all,
Joe Cerasa

Winter Time

Robert Louis Stevenson (from A Child’s Garden of Verses, Late lies the wintry sun a-bed, A frosty, fiery sleepy-head; Blinks but an hour or two; and then, A blood-red orange, sets again. Before the stars have left the skies, At morning in the dark I rise; And shivering in my nakedness, By the cold candle, bathe and dress. Close by the jolly fire I sit To warm my frozen bones a bit; Or with a reindeer-sled, explore The colder countries round the door. When to go out, my nurse doth wrap Me in my comforter and cap; The cold wind burns my face, and blows Its frosty pepper up my nose. Black are my steps on silver sod; Thick blows my frosty breath abroad; And tree and house, and hill and lake, Are frosted like a wedding-cake.
