It’s been a week of memorial services for four friends and so I dedicate this post to them and their families.

• 

Moments of tears,

• 

Reflections of love,

• 

Interspersed with humor.

• 

Stories of wanders,

• 

Tales of wonders,

• 

Interspersed with generosity.

• 

Gifts of longevity,

• 

Embracement of days,

• 

Interspersed with encouragement.

• 

Celebrations of lives,

• 

Memories of times,

• 

Interspersed with goodbyes.

• 

It has been my weighted honor to say good bye to Bob Vivian, Ann and Don Ineson, and JoAnne Diller. You all lived life to the fullest and I am so grateful for our time together for each of you had a way of making me feel as if I was the most important person in the world when I was in your presence. Your passings have left me sad, but equally grateful for I’ve been blessed with so many teachings that will remain with me forever . . . until we meet again.
