It is with a heavy heart that I write,  my beautiful friend has passed on.  I received the phone call from her husband yesterday morning.  She had told him there were but five people that he needed to call when her time had come, and I was one of them.

I knew this day would come and am trying to feel grateful that she did not have to lay in that bed any longer.  Watching her go through the natural progression of death was the most difficult thing I have ever done.  But being there for her through this time was something I promised her I would do long ago. 

    The only solace that I find in this time is that she is no longer in pain. She is free from that awful disease which crippled her body for so many years.  She is young, and beautiful and healthy once again, living among the angels.  She will watch over and protect all of us who loved her and will only be a memory or a thought away.  

She was still at home when Jason called. I didn't need to go down to her home to tell her goodbye, because I don't believe in goodbyes. I believe in see ya later's.  She was such a courageous and wonderful woman who's life had not been easy. I'm happy for her that all of the suffering and sickness if over~ I'm sad for us~All those she left behind.  

People do not die for us immediately, but remain bathed in a sort of aura of life which bears no relation to true immortality but through which they continue to occupy our thoughts in the same way as when they were alive.  It is as though they were traveling abroad.  ~Marcel Proust

Until I see you again my friend~  All My Love~  Angie:)
