And don’t we evaluate and compare ourselves during such times…and perhaps unfairly. Leaning into the arms of God.

Always a strange time - lots of greats and lots of not so's. You have given us a great sliver of one.

I said a prayer. Blessings to you and yours. Parting is never easy. Joe and Ila. Well said, the blizzard and frozen faces...perhaps frozen in memory, and deeper thoughts of one's own impermanence -- a meditation we all sadly revisit from time to time.

So sorry for your loss Kim. I lost my last aunt this past Fall so I understand your grief. She was my mom's youngest sister. I'll pray for you. God Bless my friend. JB

'In the wake' - very nice touch... Don't rightly know how you're coping this past calendar year. May grief freely run its course, and the tears eventually give way to treasured memories. Hugs, Gershon
