For a friend who’s gone


How do you honor a friend who leaves too soon?
Someone who is kind without expectation of reciprocation.
Someone with a sense of humor that keeps you on your toes.
Someone who radiates goodness.
Someone who is incredibly creative and who knows that love is in the details.
Someone who appreciates all the small gestures and loves the big ones too. 
Someone who brought beauty to everything….really, everything.
Someone who makes you feel like you matter, no matter what.
Someone who put others before herself.

Some will make a contribution in your name, others will keep you in their heart, and many will be there for your husband and children as the years pass.

I hope some of us will also let you live on through our acts of kindness. Nothing would honor you more.
