I'm not sure why I waited so long to write a memorial note for you, Darlene...it seems such a short time ago that I met you as my sister's dear friend in California,sharing the ups ands downs of clearing up and separating her "stuff." Before that she treasured all those times you and she sat and made cards together and times you did your walks through shops to find special little things of beauty. You were both beauatiful gals...Thank you for your trust and hope that you gave us going through that December of 2009. Thank you & Jarett for the beautiful dinner. thank you for comcing to LInda's memorial service, and how I wished I could have been there for you in those times of dissolving into the Light of Love. I kept you close to my heart for you to feel the beauty and rest that is there. Here it is a summer day,after a rainy night. It has been 2 years since we met last in Illinois. I feel you close like an angel right now,and one day we will meet close again face to face in that beauatai and love that spread through your smile and deeds. Peace to you and peace to Jarett.
