Karen passed peacefully last night not long after I posted yesterday’s update. The sun came up this morning and I made my bed. That may not mean a lot to you, but on this episode I explain why it means a lot to me.

Here is the full Facebook post from last night:

Karen Amo Mullikin passed peacefully tonight surrounded by loved ones. We are forever in debt for all the love, prayers, support, and messages. She was someone who made all of us better.

We will receive friends at the Newton-Hobson Chapel at Southern Wesleyan University on Saturday, January 26, 2019 from 2-4 pm with the memorial service at 4. There will be a private burial for the extended family on Sunday, the 27th, at 2 pm at Oconee Memorial Gardens. A full obituary will be posted at later time.

We have been blessed to have all our funeral and medical costs covered by some really great people. Many of you have asked what you can do to help. The kids and I are still talking about ways to honor Karen, but at this time we haven’t come to any decisions. The family has set http://www.teammullikin.comfor anyone who wants to contribute and bless our family during this time as seek the Lord’s will and healing.

Words cannot adequately express our gratitude. We love you all. May these words from 2 Timothy 4 give you the same hope it has give us:
7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8 Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.
