Honor

You and your family seem to have faced your challenges with honor. You were always positive, and were very admirable with your ability to avoid the natural responses of anger and resentment, and you helped her make the journey to the other side with love and confidence, hope and generosity on her side. Her spirit must be at peace knowing there is so much love for her. We will all miss her, and we're all here for you to share any feelings you want to share. The doctors and scientists who are searching for those new discoveries are learning from people like her. She made a big impact on the world in many ways.

Today I wear black and my HER2support pin for her.

Bless you and your children Eric, Love Celeste
