“We were born to die and we die to live.  As seedlings of God, we barely blossom on earth; we fully flower in heaven.”

President Russell M. Nelson

 

I attended a wonderful funeral yesterday, honoring a friend whom, I now realize, I’ve known for very nearly half of my life.  She was one of the finest people I’ve ever met, and her unexpected and premature departure leaves a vast hole in our neighborhood.  The quotation from President Nelson above was cited in yesterday’s funeral service.
