LOVE YOU, LACIE




Words cannot express how much I love you and how hard it will be to continue without you here. I miss you so much it hurts. But for you and for your children and my children, whom you loved, I will keep going. And I will tell them all about you. You are the strongest person I know, the most maternal person I've ever met, and the best friend I have ever had. You are fiercely loyal, generous to a fault, funny as hell, and wildly spontaneous. We had so many plans...so until we meet again and can pick up where we left off, God hold you while you hold all of us left behind.

Brynn, I just saw all this sadness on your FB and blog. Please know I am thinking of you. I didn't know your friend, but I firmly believe that people live with us long after they are gone through the stories they shared and words we tell and write about them. You are exactly right in this post, you will keep her here for you, your kids and her family. Love you.

So beautifully written. So sorry to hear about your loss. I know it is not easy to lose someone your are close to. I have found great comfort in the gospel and just trying to take one day at a time; I know it is hard! My thoughts and prayers are with you.
