Life is such a paradox. In the sane week that we celebrate life we can also mourn the loss of our loved ones. Today is a sad day because we say goodbye to my beautiful young cousin - just 23 years old. Abbi, you have left a mark on my heart that will never fade and your legacy will live on. It speaks of determination, reminds me of the power of the words we say, winning against the odds, courage and the great need for love and compassion in our world. Today is a sad day because we wish it didn't have to be this way, but we will celebrate your life all the same. I am struggling to stop crying over you today, but you are worth every tear. This is a deeply sad day and we wish you were still here. RIP my lovely. Gone but never, ever forgotten. 🌹
