Description

I got a call tonight from Cheryl (clbsmiley). Her husband, Bill, passed away last night. She told me first of the wonderful trip they were able to take together with their son, to see friends and family. She wove their trip into a joyful story, that she wanted me to hear before she told me of his death. Those who know Cheryl, will not be surprised that she chose to tell me this way. They will know of her fortitude, strength, and passion for life. I did not know Bill well, but I saw his courage, kindness, and good sense of humor. I greatly enjoyed the times I did get to spend with him. My thoughts are with you, my friend. I'm glad Bill was able to go on the trip. Love and comfort to you during this difficult time. I'll see you soon.

Yes, it's incredibly brave of Cheryl, to tell you this farewell in this special way. Unfortunately, I did not know Bill was so bad, I am than deeply touched inside, and very emotional about it. I know Cheryl as a very brave woman, always filled with lust for life, for everyone a laugh. You made the best card that I have ever seen, to also tell us of the passing of Bill. So tenderly, with beautiful warm colors, and yet so alive, while on the other hand, so tranquil. Thank you, dear Lucinda to commemorate Bill in this special way. May God be with Cheryl, and us all.

I don't know Cheryl, but I've heard many wonderful things about her from you and from several others I know here. I'm so sorry for her loss, sorry for her and for all her loved ones. I understand her sharing that wonderful trip she had, before she said anything else; I've seen that in my own family. That's the light that one remembers most. I hope that light and love carries her through her loss. As always, you speak from the heart, Lucinda, and right to the person; and you also speak to all of us, and make it personal for all of us. And your art is like a delicate graphic, with those red flowers gently dominating the scene---like life and love dominating everything. May Cheryl make the journey from darkness to light, with all those beautiful flowers carrying her on her way, and into blessings...My deepest sympathies; and a beautiful dedi for your friend.
