The cycle of life can be such a bitter sweet experience. And at its extremes there are no words to adequately share and express our joys and our griefs. But please know and remember that we, your friends and relatives, hold you dear in our hearts.

These cycles of life are driven by divine love. And the balance against the pain we feel in separation from a loved one is in keeping our hearts open to love, open to accept the precious gifts that life has to offer each of us.

I have no words I can offer you, only my sincerest condolences. And the hard earned knowingness that nothing happens by coincidence, and purpose is behind everything we experience.

All my love to you,
