Cemetery ~ Austin, Nevada |
Dear Laurel,
Two funerals this week--they were very different even though they were much the same. One for a woman of advanced age, the other for a woman who seemingly should have had decades still ahead of her. Both had vibrant faith in God, both made a significant difference in the lives of others, both were dearly loved. The grief for the first tempered by the experience of long life, the grief for the other like a jagged tear through the fabric of the lives around her. Sad and exhausting. It is never easy, but heaven seems close.
All my best,
Kate
