| The
tribute continues~~
I have received several nice letters
from people who have visited Svens' tribute page. These are ofcourse, in addition
the the guest-book entries. I thought it would be nice to include some of them here.
Dear Sam,
You will remember me, the lady
with the epidural headache with a late onset of 3 weeks, and I have the website www.epidural.net
Anyway, I was just having a
look in your website to see if you had any more interesting epidural links that I don't
have on my site, and I just had a look at the beautiful tribute you had to your brother
Sven. I come from a committed Christian family and I am a committed Christian
too. I was so touched by what you wrote about your brother and the beautiful music
"Till we meet again" brought tears to my eyes - (I know the song well and used
to sing it in a well known girls choir).
I rang my father straight away
and told him to have a look and he was extremely touched too. He lost his only
brother suddenly in 1994 who was also born in 1938 - My Uncle did not know the Lord
and this weighs heavily on my dad's heart. Sam, I am so sorry that you lost your much
loved brother, but so glad that he allowed God to use him to bring so many people to
Jesus and that even though his life on earth has been cut short, he is now in
Paradise with God. May the seeds that your brother has enabled God to plant in so
many peoples lives continue to grow!
Thank you for sharing with the world about
your wonderful brother and may God bless you and your family always.
Kindest regards and my prayers are with you
and your family.

Dear Sam,
My daughter just showed me your websight, what an
interesting websight it is.
She also told me about the story of your brother and I have
just finished reading it and listening to firstly Waltzing Matilda and then till we meet
again, how Inspiring.
What a beautiful story about an obviously beautiful
man, this filled me with emotion, You obviously loved him very much and what a wonderful
way to remember him.
As I read this story I remembered my dear
brother who passed away in 1994 three days before my youngest daughters wedding, one great
difference is that my brother did not know the Lord but I was with him till he passed
away, I found little much comfort in the gospel accept hope and trust in the Lords
mercy.
I remember the precious moments I spent with him after
being told he had three to six months at best, we then expressed our love and feeling to
each other 2 days before he passed away he only lasted 3 days not 3 months. sometime I
may send you a little story about him entitled " the clock" if you are
interested.
My family are Christians and with a background also in
the Methodist church, although we now worship in a Baptist Church.
You were an encouragement to my daughter who you
communicated to who had an epidural that went wrong, thank you for that.
May Gods richest blessing be yours and all you love.
