Obituary

When I die,
make sure
my obituary
reads:

she laughed,
breathed,
loved
and wrote.

  5. I don't want to write your obituary!!!!! It will be to hard to see through my tears! OK I will since you already wrote it for me. But don't expect me to sing. This was a really heavy truth put down in a very few super honed lines. Just the awesomeness I expect from you time and again. Lovely.

  8. Your friends don't want to think of your obituary, but, as you've handed this to us, all we can do is admire it. It is you, my dear Kenia, in a very few words.
    Earlier this month, I attended a service for my niece's husband. He was sick for a long time, and wrote exactly what he wanted my niece, his brother, and the minister to read. It was amazing. We laughed and we cried.
