A Promise Kept:
Sitting here with family and friends, I realize that today, God has blessed me with an amazing amount of peace in my heart and I feel warm and comforted. A small selfish part of my heart aches because you are no longer physically part of my life. Your smile... your laughter... the light you brought to myself and this world, no longer shines on those who knew you and that you had touched for so long. But my soul and my spirit are rejoicing. For this is not a death to mourn... but more so a life worth celebrating... a right of passage... a bon voyage... a see you soon. This is the opening of a door that starts the second half of your journey, one that is far from over. Its the rebirth of a body... a soul, that has seen it's share of the best and worst this world has had to offer and still remained unscathed. This is a promise, whispered in your ear before birth and now kept by God. A promise of once again coming back for his precious child... his earthly candle... and transforming her into a new... vibrant... vessel of joy and of light, and walking her home to grace the shores of heavens celestial river... We love you and are glad you made it home.

I hold your spirits close,
You've lost me this time,
But I'll never let go.
A tragedy it seems,
Peace Be With You
I stood there and looked at you as you took your last breath.
I looked into your eyes and saw love from
