Flown to a better place

Today my friend passed away peacefully and I cannot express it any better than Craig , her eldest son, who wrote

"Today the absolute, unequivocal LOVE of my life passed away at the tender age of 53 in mine, my brother, sister and husbands arms, her 7 year physical battle with cancer came to an end, physically yes, mentally it never even scratched the surface.
Me, my brother and sister were blessed to have been brought up by this magical, vivacious awe inspiring lady.
She stood 4'11' tall yet us 6' sons and daughter always looked up to her, she taught us to enjoy life and live it to the full which is what we've done and will continue to do all over the world making her proud!"

Not only her immediate family but her sisters and brother and their partners, nephews and nieces, mother and friends were all also around her in the house. It was a bittersweet occasion in which the sweetness was the predominant feeling. I have cheated with the image today because I felt photography was inappropriate but there were so many damsel flies in the garden that they will provide a lasting memory for all who were there.
