"The journey is the reward."
- Steve Jobs
Visiting her always brought a smile,
Even in my darkest days she found light.
Reflecting her own life, she shared stories,
About her journeys, filled with optimism.
The tales she shared took me back in time yet,
In many ways connected to my life.
She soon became family and always
Celebrated her faith daily with prayer.
Her call to Heaven was answered before
Leaving me a chance to say my goodbye.
Ending her stories shared with a smile,
Reminding me how blessed I truly am.
