This week brought the sudden loss of someone whom I have known for over forty years,
The news has shocked and affected me,
When I conveyed the sad report to a dear friend I was kindly given this response,
"We will mourn the death but celebrate the life."
Those words are very comforting to me because I truly am experiencing both emotions at the same time,
I mourn the loss but I admire the dedicated life lived,
A remarkable person in so many ways,
"We will mourn the death but celebrate the life."
A life well lived, well done and welcoming to everyone.
