Not sure what to say?

Miss you my friend !

While Jill and I did a few things together for fun they were generally planned. However one evening when I called and invited her spontaneously to a play by the Brookfield community theater players she accepted, perhaps because it was being staged at her alma mater, Brookfield Central.

I have only known Jill for almost a year and she has been the most kindhearted supportive person that I needed in my life at the time. We have shared so many memories about our children and how proud she was. Things will never be the same without you Jill. With love from your PQ family.

My sensitive, helpful partner at The School of Spiritual Psychology. You applied yourself to increase your self-knowledge, to speak your truth, and witness others speaking theirs, and to make a genuine, sustained effort at applying Transformations principles in your life. The effort you made is your reward. I am grateful to have known you. I feel, and hope that you benefitted from your life, and your time here. 'No mistakes in becoming.'
