October 24, 1940 - December 21, 2007

This lovely lady is Mary Ann Jereb. She was one of my clients, and as a friend, one of the sweetest people I have ever been privileged to know!

Of those clients I began with (and specifically, those I have cared for with Crohn's), she has been my "delight"! Never once did I see this incredible woman feel sorry for herself. Instead, quietly -and with great dignity, Mary Ann battled what she had been dealt for over twenty-five years with no hint of self-pity; and I marvelled at her strength, and Peace, which could only have come from her faith in the Lord!

I dedicate this page to her as a tribute to her Love, Strength ... and Abiding Faith. And, I give Thanks to our Father that, in being allowed to know, and serve, the indomitable spirit of this woman, I was also Blessed to grow from the strengths she saw, brought out -and encouraged in me!                                                                         Close Window
