79. She was beautiful.

...and your tribute to her radiates the love you still have for her, burning with just the same intensity as when she was living. I cannot imagine the pain of losing a child so young. I lost a brother too young just 4 years ago and still cannot accept it. Still nothing like losing a child.

I am sorry for your loss. She will always be with you in your heart and in the memories you have of her.

May you find comfort and peace.
