This morning, I was greatly saddened when I received the following email from Marilyn Moll of www.urbanhomemaker.com. Please pray for the family.
With the deepest sorrow imaginable, I must tell you my dear husband Duane passed away suddenly and unexpectedly Sunday night. We are all in grief and shock as he was only 56 years old and we had no indications ahead of time.
The Urban Homemaker will continue to serve all your needs for products and information in the Spirit of Titus 2. The Urban Homemaker started out as my hobby and later turned into our family business through Duane’s vision and hard work.
My assistants Sandy Tuin and Laura Rogers will do their best to continue a high level of service in the meantime. I expect to return to the office next week. Please be patient with our transition.
My children have grown up in the business and will be able to help me carry on with the highest level of service you have come to expect.
My daughter Laura is flying home from Iraq as I write. She has a very long almost two day flight, prayers are appreciated for her as well.
I am totally unprepared to becoming a widow at the relatively young age of 56. Duane was a wonderful husband and daddy and will be desperately missed by myself, my children, my church family, and you my customers.
I have written you all twice in the last year about how life is fragile, embrace with thanksgiving the smallest of everyday blessings. Unfortunately, now it is my turn to understand in a personal way the truth of these words.
Your prayers for a smooth transition and God’s provision are most appreciated. Cards can be directed to our PO Box 72, Paonia, CO 81428.
With deep sorrow and grief,
Marilyn Moll
The Urban Homemaker
oh, my goodness. I will be praying for that family. We are familiar with Urban Homemaker.
I am not familiar with the Urban Homemaker, but we will certainly be praying. Thank you for posting this! 🙂 My heart goes out to her and her family!!!
