She maybe gone but not forgotten and will always have a place in your heart. At least you have those beautiful memories of the times you all had together.

Yes I have wonderful memories. My husband, her son, has put together a beautiful book of her life with photos and accomplishments. I wrote a haiku.

in one final swirl
silken hermes drifts gently
settles with a sigh

She was always in a whirlwind and loved her Hermes scarves, so the silk was always flying around, until she died peacefully. Thanks for reading. judester

This speaks a memoir about the person fairly, naturally and in a humane way, as you state how he lived in orphaned hearts ever; well said, well done. Keep Writing -- DR ALCREATOR

Thanks for your thoughtful review Dolly. Gretta was such a force and positive energy that it is hard not to sense the loss of her when the family comes together. I miss her dearly. j
