Today I am remembering my beloved sister, Phyllis who left us and went to heaven 5 years ago. I still miss her so much. There are many others who also miss her and have had to learn how to live without her. She filled so many roles for so many people. She was wife, mother, sister, daughter, aunt, friend, joker, listener, counsellor, confidante, always ready to talk, shop, quilt, sew, discuss ideas, give advice, laugh, cook, bake, read, joke around, pray, make a new friend.
I think of some of the changes over the past 5 years. One new thing is Facebook. She would have loved reconnecting and deepening connections with many old and new friends. Other changes are the new extended family members who have either been born or entered the family through marriage. She would have been able to watch the young mature and the elderly get older.
Yes, it is true that time has passed and there have been many changes since Phyl left. But I believe we all can agree that knowing and being in relationship with her has made a great impact upon us. We will never forget her.

Thinking about you as you remember your sister today, as as you continue to wade through rough waters.
