Dear Tena...as I read the very sad news of your friend's passing, I could only think about your last words to her...that it was alright for her to "let go"...and how comforting that had to have been for her...AND how comforting it should be for you to have had the opportunity to say these words to her...something that you may well want to remember...as you grieve, now...and, too, as time passes. It has been said that those who are dying need to know that it is alright to "let go"...and that is exactly what you did with your gentle and kind parting words.

Blessings to you...
Therese
