My beautiful Sissy. I love you so much. We were separated by miles but always picked up where we left off when talked or saw each other. We had a special bond. Until we meet again, fly high beautiful Angel. I miss you and will “see you later”

We never met, you and I, and yet you were instrumental in bringing unbridled joy, deep wisdom teachings and a perfect example of what unconditional love looks like into the world. Thank you for being Sissa’s Mom. Thank you for raising my beautiful friend to be the strong grounded human she is. She and her children are a fine legacy to leave. Swift passing Crone.

I never got to say goodbye to our dad and now to you. I know you didn’t like goodbyes but with them comes closure sometimes. I never got to tell you how much I love you. And I would have if I could have. Until forever ends, I will love and miss you dear sister.
