After a 7-year battle with cancer, one of Missys dearest childhood friends succumbed yesterday and is no longer with us. In some ways, prepared for this day. But you can never be truly prepared for loss. It hits everyone in different ways. Yes, we humans being emotional creatures and are built to grieve when losing those that mean so much to us. Today Missy is focused on her life and not her passing, because thats how we shall remember her - a sunny, funny and wise friend who fought the good fight and carried on despite the difficulties, making people laugh and sharing her joy throughout, even though she had to deal with things that she certainly hadnt expected or planned. She will forever be remembered and definitely not forgotten. Walking the Komen Walk in Central Park with her will always be etched in my memory. Then announcing her name at the finish line over the mic and speakers. She crossed over the finish line that day and has now completed the race for the last time, crossing over into our memories forever. That was a good day. Today, not so good, but we know shes resting in peace and has become one with the spirits that surround us. Well remember her for her quirky ways, her silliness, her laugh and curiosity to ask questions about others before answering questions about herself. Safe journeys, our friend. You will traverse the universe and watch over us for all the days of our lives.
