The passing of a very dear friend
My very good friend and cousin-in-law passed away January 25th.
I've been crying most of the day, because today was her funeral.
I've never cried at a funeral before. I left a message on the funeral home's website about her, and this is what I wrote:
"Christine wasn't just my cousin's wife or even just a dear friend of mine, she was someone who was kind no matter what and was loving, understanding and beautiful in heart and soul. I don't think anyone will understand how much she meant to me personally, and I pity those who didn't know her much or never got the chance to know her at all. This world is much more bleak and empty without her to brighten it."
