No Worries in Heaven by Douglas B Sharp

No Worries in Heaven is a source of comfort for a husband who has suddenly lost his mate. Though death is a subject that is difficult to approach and prepare for, everyone must face this someday. Doug describes the joy of falling in love with Vivian, asking her to marry him, and serving the Lord together throughout their 50-year relationship. In all relationships there are rough areas that need sanding, and though their marriage was good, they wanted to understand more about each other. Vivian had discovered that she had breast cancer, and it was of a type that was difficult to treat. After chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation, she thought the battle was won. But tests showed that the cancer cells were still present, and they migrated to her lungs and liver. She worked as a massage therapist and had done three massages the day before she went to the hospital with breathing problems. She passed away ten days later. Doug talks about the shock of losing her so suddenly and the flurry of decisions he needed to make over the course of the next few months. But comfort came with a picture in his mind of Vivian with Jesus and the mansion in the background. She was working on His stripes, using her alabaster box of costly oil. Doug also has prepared a practical list of decisions a bereaved husband must make after the death of his wife, and how he must maintain composure throughout the process of grieving, sorting through stuff and taking care of financial and legal issues.
