For the Beauty of the Earth

I've known J and B all my life. They met my paternal Grandparents in Blackpool around 1950 and they remained lifelong friends. Even after my Grandparents passed away (a significant number of years apart) J and B continued to visit my Mum and Dad and stayed in touch with us all. B passed away and we attended her funeral service today. She was 87. J is 92 and they had been married for over 60 years. It's so hard to imagine J without B.

B had one of those singing voices that stood out - very distinctive. Whether a wedding or a funeral she could carry the congregation along with her. It was strange today knowing she was there but not hearing her.

One of the hymns today was For the Beauty of the Earth because of her love for nature. I hope B is singing it with the angels.
