True Stories from Tybee Church
When Jeanmarie worshiped, she danced.
There was no stopping her.
Occasionally we'd stick her behind drums but they never held her back for very long.
First a smile breaks out ... then she screams, "YES!" ... tiny feet jump and in an instant Jeanmarie is leaping crazily around the Bar!
Were it not for the perpetual smile on her face, the police may have been called.
There was a song ... "Dance Like David Danced" and were it played, she surely exceeded anything the great King of Israel may have done bringing the Ark of the Covenant into Jerusalem.
Jeanmarie also hugged ... A LOT!
Before the service she'd walk up and hug you but once worship began, she danced over, gave a hug and kept dancing ... and smiling.
It was impossible to not love her as she transformed herself into the very embodiment of worship in the highest degree.
Perhaps she weighed 90 pounds, which makes sense given all the dancing she did.
In the end she danced her way straight through cancer and into the arms of Jesus who happily took her arms smiling and the two of them haven't stopped yet!
