It was great to check in with people and say hi (with added crying).
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
It was gorgeous, and I only cried a little
It really was lovely to be with everyone, especially JZ. I was crying too hard to speak but it is so special to be together.
But I'm so glad we had this.
JZ will know how much we care about her. I’m very glad we had this.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
So much love.

Don't feel bad, bunk. We were there for you, not a husband-bot(Except for the ways we call you a bot already.)

Unintended irony Windsparrow, though I'm used to being very two levels about the impairment,I can do it almost without noticing now, I suppose. But I meant that I'm not straight-ahead like my mother.(in addition, I expect to the crip humor.)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Thank you so much beekaytee for hosting. It was good to have your counselor experience in hand to make everything run smoothly and help us deal with our emotions. That was probably very difficult.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Don’t apologize for loving so hard that having to say goodbye makes it overflow, you wonderful humans you. Don’t apologize for being real, and open, and honest in our love and grief.
I'm so glad Matilda decided to be a part of it, as you've watched her all grow up.
I am so glad she was there to see our love for not just her mom, but for all of you. She’s a good kid.
