We had the formal memorial for my big sister Suzy last weekend.
It was a beautiful day, sandwiched between two days of drenching downpours.
Penny brought home-grown flowers from her farm in Vermont. Gorgeous.

“It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look, which morally we can do. To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.” ~ Henry David Thoreau ~

I filled the yard and planter boxes with purple flower bulbs last fall, as a memorial to my friend Sherry, and to my big sister Suzy, both of whom passed away in 2007 from recurrences of breast cancer.
Spring 2008 is my Purple Memory Garden Spring.

It does not fill me with ease to see all the roadside memorials when I go out for a run. But if I ever am struck and killed while running, I hope no one will memorialize me with fake flowers on a metal guard rail. Instead, plant a flowering tree somewhere sheltered, and remember me there.
