You never quite know they way life is going to go. We have our plans for days and even weeks ahead of time but yet you really never know what life may throw at you. Since moving to the village of Overton we have had the privilege of meeting all kinds of people. One of the first people we met was Tiffany, an American from Virginia who married a British man named Simon. We have very much enjoyed our friendship with this couple. It is great to have an American right here in the village to relate to. Simon and Tiffany have introduced us to numerous people at the pub and one of those amazing people is a man named Bob. You can see Bob in the picture above playing his bass. Simon is the drummer in the group Sideways Down and they performed at the Greyhound pub Saturday night. Now you may wonder where I am going with all of this but you see Bob died suddenly Monday morning. No one expected it, it came as an incredible shock. I really only knew Bob a bit, I think I counted that I had had 3 conversations with him. Yet it's amazing that I am still impacted. In the small interaction I had I knew he was a man who loved people and made those comfortable around him. Many are saddened in the village about his death and it is never an easy thing to cope with. One thing has struck me in a profound way: Ever conversation and interaction we have is important. We don't know the impact it will have on someone and we cannot guarantee what is going to happen next. So my prayer is that God will use me in everything I do for His glory! Rebecca
