Smita goes to Glory
Smita Kumar |
It was with sadness, we heard the news that Smita passed away and went to be with the Lord on Wednesday morning, 14 Jan 15 at 10:15 AM. She had been battling with stage 4 cancer. We did not expect it to be so soon. But we know God is in control and all things work for good.
We were scheduled for a mission trip to India from 15-25 Sep. We had to get Bro Ruben to take over our place and we departed fro Virginia Beach on Friday morning. We arrived Virginia Beach on Friday night (US time) after27 hrs of flight time and transit. John C, a close family friend, was at the airport to pick us up. John C and his wife Ruth have always been there for Kumar, Smita and Manisha.
The first person to greet us when we arrived at Smita's home was Manisha. That girl was calm and brave and ushered us with the loving hospitality, as though nothing has happened. Wow.... She has accepted the situation much better than many adults.
We thank God for all who have prayed fro us and the next few days here are going to be defining moments for many of us here. The funeral is scheduled on Tuesday morning.
