Condolences

Condolence From: Anthony Keene
Condolence: Rest in peace Mama! I am so proud and inspired by your strength and your strong will. I am honored that I got to be by your side during your transition to your next adventure. You touched so many people and were very much loved. I love you mama, I will miss you with every ounce of my being!

Gone From My Sight

I am standing upon the seashore. A ship, at my side,
spreads her white sails to the moving breeze and starts
for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength.
I stand and watch her until, at length, she hangs like a speck
of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.

Then, someone at my side says, "There, she is gone."

Gone where?

Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast,
hull and spar as she was when she left my side.
And, she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port.
Her diminished size is in me -- not in her.

And, just at the moment when someone says, "There, she is gone,"
there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices
ready to take up the glad shout, "Here she comes!"

And that is dying...

Condolence: Dearest Mike and Tony, Allan and Family,

I am so deeply saddened to hear of your loss and having to say goodbye to a lovely lady, a fun-loving person, a special spirit with a wonderful sparkle in her eye and a quick wit. I will never forget her spunky personality, her laugh, and especially her kind heart.

You will all be in my thoughts, my prayers, and always in my heart.

Blessings with Love,

Auntie Liz or as Carol would fondly tease me by calling me

Condolence: We are so sorry for your loss; words cannot even begin to comfort you during this time. I pray you remember all the good times and I do...laugh each time I pull a pattern or piece of fabric that she gave me or spoke about..We were connected for only a short time, but the memories are many. In the Spring, I will be planting Iris' in your memory; I collected seeds this fall and dried them.(true Alaska Iris') You will always be in my prayers and now I have a great friend to ask questions while I'm sewing. Remember the good times.
