Goodbye to a dear friend!
Please listen, my dear friends:
My dear Kristen—our Sweet Calico: you have been a huge influence in my life over not enough years! You taught me so much about how to live with sweetness and kindness in a context of ambiguity and even of parody!! How you made me laugh! For instance, when you didn’t accept your “short-hair” look!!
Folks at my church have been praying for you—for Mike, the girls, the grandparents, and the wonderful good friends—for a long time. We will not stop.
My dear Sweet—we watched the jellyfish together. And you taught me how to love and live across barriers that once were boundaries. I honor your life and feel deeply in my heart your presence among us. Good-bye, dear friend.
Heart’s outpourings to all who love her!
Faymie [talie]
