Goodbye Aunty Mabel

A monarch butterfly greeted me when I arrived at the Hosoi Garden Mortuary today, and together we looked over the displayed photos reflecting my Aunty Mabel's life. I will never forget her kind, generous and extremely thoughtful nature. It was SHE who comforted me by letting me know that she was ready and unafraid to move on. I can only hope to be as courageous when it's my time to see her again.

Jalna, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your aunt. It's so hard to lose the ones we hold so dear. Hold on to the fond memories I am sure you have of her.
