The first is physical;the second, when people stop relating stories about that person;third, when people pass the grave and no one knows who that person was. Sometimes, I feel lucky to be sharing the last year or so with my friend but I dread the day she won't be here. I already miss her! It's a long,hard good-bye.Mom Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06989886362299136255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840481684409907581.post-23393392452034909612008-03-26T02:50:00.000-05:002008-03-26T02:50:00.000-05:00Your most beautiful and insightful post yet.

The two actresses portraying them always ask for more stories about them. I doubt if my grandmothers would have approved of their portrayals, but there is a consolation in seeing hundreds of people loving them as I did (and still do).DFVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07003705351039137032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8840481684409907581.post-87138033655926380292008-03-25T22:16:00.000-05:002008-03-25T22:16:00.000-05:00Coincidently, I was thinking just today of a "deea...Coincidently, I was thinking just today of a "deear friend" I never met. He's a guy who built over 600 canoes with his wife. Each one a special contribution to someone who no doubt dearly cherishes it today. He passed away at the age of 94 still building canoes. I have deeply admired him for his work but more importatnly for his devotion to his wife who proceeded him in death by a few years. He continued to build canoes on his own. He deeply loved the outdoors and took every opportunity to share it with others. That reminds me a lot of someone else I know. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for your post today.Paddlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03283607980439949748noreply@blogger.com
