DH and I went to a friends funeral today...yes, a friend. He was 59 years old and just wonderful. The service today was one of the most moving I have EVER EVER been to. It was full of fun, laughter, stories, and the most amazing ceremony I had ever seen. Each person was asked to go the front and light a candle off the white 'Divine' pre-lit candle, think of a memory of friend and then place the lit candle in a container of sand. By the end, there were so many candles lit and the lights were out, and only candle light remained. Gorgeous music played .... it was a very emotional and moving service. It's how I would want mine to be...only in a church. Gosh...it was gorgeous.
He will be missed...His wife looked so exhausted....friend had been sick for so long and I imagine she is just so tired. Actually, wife is friend and then, of course husband, became friend.
Wonderful people....We will miss you, W. And, we love you, C. You are both in our prayers. We love you both.
