Ave Maria

My friend Mary died last Wednesday. Her funeral is today. Blossom, who introduced me to Mary about twenty years ago, can't make it, she has an appointment at the Peter McCallum clinic for treatment for another tumour. She'll be with me in spirit as I say a private prayer from both of us for dear Mary.

I'll miss Mary. I had mixed emotions when I learned of her death. I was sad that I wouldn't see her again, yet at the same time I felt relief that her suffering was finished. I last called on her a few months ago, she was not long out of hospital after a bout of pneumonia.

I posted about Mary on 30 October 2007.
