Recently, the Peace Arch News carried an obituary for Shirley Kathleen Weldon.
What a wonderful way of looking at things. The way it is written, in the first person, is truly inspired.
One wonders if this was the lady’s idea or that of her family. Either way, I was intrigued by the approach.
I was particularly moved by the passage, “Some might say I suffered from Alzheimer’s. But I didn’t. Those who loved me suffered; I simply ebbed.”
What an insightful way to look at things!
Thank you for sharing this family loss with so many people and thereby teaching them something of great value.
