N'omi Orr, 2/13/1938 - 4/19/2006

I am happy to report that my dear wife N'omi, the light of my life, is out of pain. If you know me, you know that I have a strong belief in a literal heaven, and in the literal truth of the Bible. I know N'omi is with the Lord in heaven, and I truly rejoice in that.

But I miss her more than I can possibly express, even though I know I will see her someday in heaven.

We're having a quiet burial on Monday, April 24. Then on Saturday, April 29, we're having a memorial meeting, to give friends an opportunity to share memories and testimonies about N'omi's life. Then we're going over to the home of my son John for a Glory Party, to rejoice in N'omi's graduation. (See http://www.nomiorr.com.)

At this moment, the location of the memorial meeting is uncertain; check http://www.nomiorr.com for updates.

Please don't send flowers. If your heart is prompting you to do something, ask God what it is. Perhaps it's something like getting a special gift for your spouse, or making a donation to your favorite charity. N'omi's life was about helping people hear God.
