The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

Pete will be dearly missed by my family. My son, Bob Johnson, Stacy Sater, Deniece Habick and Shane Lorenz. They thought a great deal of him. He's been a good friend to them from childhood thru adulthood. I know he enjoyed raiding my garden last year. Loved the tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers. He got to enjoy some of my homemade Rhubarb jelly and salsa.
We know he didn't want to go, but God must of had other plans for Pete. I wish you peace and comfort during this trying time, and my prayers and tears have been coming from my heart since hearing of Petes passing.
To be so young..I can't imagine losing one of my children. With my deepest sympathy,
Dee
