Description
This will be my last image....it is with much love that I dedicate it to one of the most wonderful ladies I ever had the pleasure of knowing....Mrs. Sandy Hollenbaugh.....
Sandy was the loving Mother of my son in law, Chris Roark and the Mother in Law of my daughter Michelle Roark....The loving paternal grandmother of Jasmin, Kadence, Kira and Anya. And she was my friend....
Sandy suffered a fall, it is still undetermined at this time how that fall took place....she was on life support and when it was determined there was little brain activity, the life support was removed...Sandy took her final walk from this world with Jesus this past Saturday, April 19, 2008.
She was and is loved by many and she will be so missed....I know that she is with Jesus now, pain free and no more fears, for that I rejoice.
We'll miss you Sandy!
Sandy is pictured here with her and my granddaughter, Kadence.
The following song lyrics are by Michael W. Smith and it reminds me of what Sandy must be seeing now...
I Can Only Imagine
can only imagine
What it will be like
When I walk
By your side
I can only imagine
What my eyes will see
When your face
Is before me
I can only imagine
Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel
Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still
Will I stand in your presence or to my knees will I fall
Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine
I can only imagine
When that day comes
And I find myself
Standing in the Son
I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever
Forever worship You
I can only imagine
I can only imagine
I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever, forever worship you

I know the Michael W. Smith tune and words well, Marlene. They are something to always give inspiration and hope. This render is beautiful and what a wonderful way of remembering someone so close to you and your family. I've sent you a site mail with my personal email in it...feel free to send a note when you can...I'll always respond.

Beautiful image and words, Marlene. I'm sure she's happy and with the angels now. Take care of you now.

This is such a bittersweet dedication: extremely lovely and well done, but also sad in that it's your last one here (at least for a while.) It is a beautiful dedication, full of emotion. No matter what, keep pursuing your art, when time and mood permit it; I've found that the act of creating something or composing something keeps me sane and balanced! Thank you for all of the comments and encouragement that you've given, and feel free to contact me whenever you need to...even if it's to just chat/gab a bit! BIG hugs from Prague!

You must return. But do so on God's time not ours. This dedication should let you see you have more to share about faith and love. Come back when you can. Come back bold. Chris Tomlins' lyrics My chains are gone I've been set free. My God, my Savior He ransomed me.

I am sorry about your loss and equally sorry you made this your last work. Please don't give up your art for they are what brings a person closer to the Godhead within. This is very good and heartfelt. When you are ready to return, you will but do not give up! I'll let you know when I have posted my 50th rendering. Keep coming back, Marlene. Let other works inspire you as they do me. TS
