That's a beautiful photo, Paul. I'm sure you must have such bittersweet 
feelings this, her first birthday since she left.

Memories of joy and beauty and happiness, mixed with anger, loss and grief.

I'm glad you have a few photos and I feel honoured that you shared this one 
with us. She was beautiful, and from what you told us over the years, a 
beautiful human being.

I wish you peace,

frank
