An Elegy For Iolanda's Loss

When we lose someone we have loved so much, especially the one who made a difference in our past life... we lose something of our own. And our sorrow reflects every thought cherished by the deepness of that love; and for sometime, consolation will not be found: unless we realize, we are bound for the same destiny in our predestined time.

This is just wonderfully penned, Andrew. I didn't know about this. I am guessing it is very recent? I'm sure she will cherish it. You are someone I would certainly want doing an elegy for someone I loved as well. Thanks for your very kind recent comment. LUv,Andrea

Iolanda's been having a hard time dealing with the loss of her cousin and I'm sure she'll appreciate this compassionate write, Andrew. It was kind of you to remember her right now. Love, Carolyn
