Death is nothing at all.

It does not count.

I have only slipped away into the next room

I am I, and you are you, and the old life that we lived so fondly together

is untouched, unchanged.

Whatever we were to each other,

that we are still.

Call me by that old familiar name.

Speak of me in the easy way which you always used.

Put no difference in your tone.

Wear no forced air of sorrow.

Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together.

Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.

Let my name be ever the household name it always was.

Let it be spoken without the ghost of a shadow upon it.

Life means all that it ever meant.

It is the same as it ever was.

There is absolute and unbroken continuity.

What is this death but a negligible accident?

Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?

I am but waiting for you,

for an interval,

somewhere very near,

just around the corner.

All is well.

Rosamonde Pilcher, 1991

Blessings and strength to you and yours. xxx

Lissett,
That is the most beautiful thing I have ever read. She sounds like a truly wonderful person. I really hope to hear more wise words you can share with us from your grandmother.

Lissett,

My heart goes out to you and your family. It sounds like a beautiful and loving passing, and I'm not sure anyone could ever ask for more. She will she live always in you, and from time to time I bet you'll laugh seeing yourself doing things that she did, or in her way of doing them. In that way your children will always know her as well.
Much love,
AH

What a touching and beautiful way for Pilar to be reunited with her long lost loved ones on the other side. And you are so blessed to have been with her when she went. I have seen many people die and it is very rarely so peaceful and filled with love and family as was Pilar's death. I can only hope that when I die it will be as spiritual and loving an experience as your grandmother's.

I am so terribly proud of you too Lissie--you are and will always remain an inspiration to me and you will remain the apple of her eye as Pilar watches out for you from heaven.

Love,
Althea

I'm sorry Lissie. Stand strong - you're doing well. I can't imagine.

Thanks for sharing the news. Like everyone else, I mourn your loss at the same time I envy your experiences with her while she was here. I know she will be missed by family and friends, but thought of with a smile every day.

I am sorry for your loss. She will always be with you. You are very lucky to have had such a wonderful grandmother and that you were so close to her.

You are in my thoughts and prayers
