LAUREN CHRISTINE GRONINGA

     It's a squall of the greatest proportions to have a death in the family. 

     My niece Erin, my brother Mark's daughter, lost her 9.5 month old baby girl last Thursday, March 5, 2015. Erin & Chad, Lauren's father, knew she didn't have long to live once she was diagnosed type 2 Gaucher's Disease. 

     As you can see she was an angel from the get-go. Her brothers, Kaleb & Lucas, as well as her sister, Krista, and everyone actually, would like to know why. But why, as we all eventually learn, is an unanswerable question in this type of situation. But the below quote seems adds light. God Bless little Lauren.  

    “Perhaps God tires of calling the aged to his flock so he picks a rosebud before it grows old.”
