He hung out with the jocks because he lettered his freshman year,hung out with the nerds because he was a real good student and actually studied, hung out the ra ras because he was in student goverment and the debate team etc etc. I was rebel and somewhat of a troublemaker and my ilk all liked Kit too because he use to laugh and hang out with us too.The summer between my Junior and Senior year I was going to Hawaii and everyone was really jealous. Kit signed my yearook and said,"To bad your going to Hawaii,we could have had a real blast" I mean he he is staying home and mowing lawns all summer to save money for a car and he really felt bad that I had to go to Hawaii. That spirit, enthusiam, love of life and people brings everyone up. It pains me deeply to see Kit going through all this but it comforts me to know no one could handle it better, God Bless you all, Love JimiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7144565291446185890.post-44495608800952603322009-01-06T10:54:00.000-10:002009-01-06T10:54:00.000-10:00Morning Kit and Shelly!It's 12:30 California time,...Morning Kit and Shelly!<BR/>It's 12:30 California time, 10:30 YOUR time. <BR/>Had my ipod on and was thinking how you mentioned "I Can Only Imagine", Kit, as a song that talks about being with the Lord. ...Just then "Who Am I" by Casting Crowns came on.<BR/><BR/>CHECK OUT THESE LYRICS!<BR/>(Reminds me of your Seminar you're gonna send me!

And you will go out and leap like calves released from the stall.<BR/><BR/>I had forgotten the second part about the "leaping like calves" and when I looked it up, it made me smile thinking about both of you--when you are released from the hospital room, I know you will be leaping like calves, too, huh?! <BR/><BR/>We ALL will be!<BR/>Love in Christ,<BR/>RobynAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7144565291446185890.post-48991128351774676342009-01-06T09:10:00.000-10:002009-01-06T09:10:00.000-10:00One of my favorite teachings from Kit was the Sund...One of my favorite teachings from Kit was the Sunday he preached on the book of Esther. Katie and Nick were young teenagers at the time and we FORCED them to get up and go to church. They had sullen and resentful attitudes before church and just for the occasion, Katie dressed up as Satan! I pretended not to notice the wild red eye makeup coordinated with bright red lips, red choker and red outfit. Ha!<BR/><BR/>As Kit started his message on Esther the beauty queen, he pranced around the stage like a model on a runway! He had so many funny ways of bringing his message to life! And we laughed so hard, and after church, smiles and laughter and peace replaced any attitude. Then Kit came over and talked so lovingly and engagingly to Katie and Nick.<BR/><BR/>That Sunday was one of many that Kit helped win the hearts of my kids to the Lord. Now every time Kit preaches, we all make an extra effort to go and hear him.<BR/><BR/>Kit, keep on preaching and winning hearts to Christ!!! We love you and need you so much!<BR/><BR/>The Schlag FamilySteve and Jannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03799112318844308632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7144565291446185890.post-21477339915576076052009-01-06T08:58:00.000-10:002009-01-06T08:58:00.000-10:00Praying Lord for Your Sweet Spirit to hover over K...Praying Lord for Your Sweet Spirit to hover over Kit and Shelly.

Some people are touchers and Kit and Shelly are. They have touched all our lives in so many ways and we can now, hopefully, touch them by sharing our love via this blog.Marsha and Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02201699673870942903noreply@blogger.com
