You always loved sunsets, called them mystical, said that if we looked deeply with purposeful conviction that we could see the face of those that we had loved and lost.

She died at only 54, too soon, never forgotten and loved forever. I camped on the summit that night under billions of bright stars, each a heavenly glowing monument to all those loved ones that have gone before us.
