Losing a loved one in this day and age is even more hard to take. Not being able to properly say goodbye because of the Covid pandemic is soul destroying.

When I lost my dad it was very hard for me. To this day I can not go to visit his grave with out crying. My heart and prayers goes out to your friends. Please let me know if I can do anything. 🙏🙏🙏


Though we need to weep your loss,
You dwell in that safe place in our hearts,
Where no storm or night or pain can reach you.

Your love was like the dawn
Brightening over our lives
Awakening beneath the dark
A further adventure of colour.

The sound of your voice
Found for us
A new music
That brightened everything.

Whatever you enfolded in your gaze
Quickened in the joy of its being;
You placed smiles like flowers
On the altar of the heart.
Your mind always sparkled
With wonder at things.

Though your days here were brief,
Your spirit was live, awake, complete.

We look towards each other no longer
From the old distance of our names;
Now you dwell inside the rhythm of breath,
As close to us as we are to ourselves.

Though we cannot see you with outward eyes,
We know our soul’s gaze is upon your face,
Smiling back at us from within everything
To which we bring our best refinement.

Let us not look for you only in memory,
Where we would grow lonely without you.
You would want us to find you in presence,
Beside us when beauty brightens,
When kindness glows
And music echoes eternal tones.

When orchids brighten the earth,
Darkest winter has turned to spring;
May this dark grief flower with hope
In every heart that loves you.

May you continue to inspire us:

To enter each day with a generous heart.
To serve the call of courage and love
Until we see your beautiful face again
In that land where there is no more separation,
Where all tears will be wiped from our mind,
And where we will never lose you again.

The Light is shinning and she is lonely and waiting in the darkness.

It changes one forever, it gets into your soul and you view life differently. The hole of loss never truly heals, it becomes covered with scar tissue but its still there....and a scent, a song, a memory will bring it all flooding back. Different kinds of loss, different pain and we all deal and manage differently. Its a part of living....and becomes more to the forefront as we age. Although its inevitable, it never ever is easy ~~
My sincere condolences to your friends...
