Lilacs in the spring

That’s Father Jim  in the pic above. – (Thanks for the pic Theo)

A long but good day despite being a little misty at times.

The weather was excellent and we all enjoyed the beautiful sunshine that blessed Kathy’s service.

The rain held until we all went our separate ways, some to an impromptu lunch, others home and all of us missing Kathy but joyfully animated in remembrance of my beloved.

Father Jim officiated and Rick delivered the eulogy I posted earlier today. It has been deservedly well received.

Others like Richard and Ezra and the funniest vet you’ll ever meet Dr. Kyla spoke of their admiration and affection for Kath.

It was a nice turnout and I enjoyed meeting Kathy’s friends and fans.

I have been sustained by the love you have expressed for Kathy. I do not think she ever imagined the positive impact she had on so many.

But she knows now and smiles upon us.

And I never forget that I am luckiest of all.

Had a seeming necessity not dictated I would have rescheduled for a weekend as I know many more would have loved to attend.

My other regret is that covid forced a delay past Lilac season.

They were Kathy’s favourite sign of spring and the summer to come.

Next year you will have your Lilacs Kathy. I promise.
