Hi Jan. I loved your meeting with Arlene. I worked at WMart in OKC and Arlene used to shop in our store. She is the nicest person you would ever want to meet. So pretty, too. Saw her once in a TV ad here and had no idea she was involved in the bombing. I prayed for her a lot. Last night she was on the Those Changed Forever doc after the bombing ceremony. I cried hard for her. Again, she is so kind and pretty. I miss seeing her at the store, as I retired due to health. TY.
Jan, may I share my Oklahoma City Bombing connection. We buried our stillborn son, Andrew Vesper, on the one year anniversary. I distinctly remember that spring Northern California day with bright blue skies and big puffy clouds. That anniversary was in our hearts that day - April 19. 🙏😢❤️
Beautiful Easter reflection of a remarkable experience. It's wonderful to experience how the threads of our lives come together in our own tapestry. Happy Easter Jan.
Wow! You just never know who God will put in your path. I have stood at that fence, now covered with photos and flowers. Such a sobering place. The Netflix documentary on the bombing is very well done, but I cried in several places.
That WAS such a sobering experience. I took a stone home from the pile of rubble and put it on my desk at school to help put life into perspective. I haven’t seen the documentary. I will have to watch it. Thanks!
What a beautiful story! Thank you for sharing Jan!
I remember to that day at the bombing, and I also remember to about praying for all the victims. The children and the parents of those children, it just broke my heart. But they say there’s always a bright side or goodness that comes out of everything bad, and through the years I have come to believe that. Blessings Jan.💜
Happy Easter, Jan! This was an incredible experience, and just think of the randomness of it. That gift store sounds like a road trip kinda destination. I'm glad you shared Arlene with us. I remember exactly where I was that day... and thank goodness she is hear to remind us of Jesus and His gifts.

Hope you had a Happy Easter, Diane! I was definitely blessed that day. ❤️

Well, I suppose we all have bizarre things happen to us now and again. Although, I have to say, your story tops anything that has ever happened to me!
