Love and Light Lisa

Started thinking about Lisa and how much "love and light" she always brought along with her words. Just thought it would be nice to mention it.

Eric,
I ,too, miss Lisa. And all the others who have fought the good fight and then gone on to better things. On occasion I must feel the need to be melancholy and I run through the old posts from them and cry a little and then remember how much they gave to us and rejoice in having known them.
Thanks for the opportunity to think about them again today.
Love & hugs,
Marlys
