When death occurs we who are still here, alive, often think; wow I was just talking to him.

She seemed so vibrant, what happened?

Anything out of our ordinary begs the question, what happened? Why?

An actual why is informative yet unimportant

A sudden return to the Creator’s arms is unsettling

Rest in peace, Dr. Karen.

You helped me with insight I would not have had without your presence.

I am glad to have known you.
