Please share whatever you wish here.
Flowers for the service are welcome (especially potted plants), but please consider a memorial donation instead, to:

This is a memorial service. There will be no viewing or funeral procession. There will be snacks.
We will gather to share our profound grief and loss, and to seek a word of comfort from God. We will acknowledge our sadness and anger but we will not stay there. We will not let the manner of her death define her life. We will celebrate her wit, kindness, generosity, and strength. We will remember that she knew a good deal about resurrection and redemption. We will give thanks to God for her life among us, and we will rejoice in the ways she touched and changed us. We will experience Grace and serenity. Her death was deeply wrong. But SHE was a Gift.
