Today August 4, 2010 was a beautiful day at the Westwood Cemetery.
I arrived at high noon and the flowers were yet to arrive. I decided to
call David the caretaker and asked him to help out by cleaning the
crypt and getting it ready for the Memorial tomorrow. David’s work
impressed me. He spent over 20 minutes cleaning and buffing the
crypt as a crowd began to form. Right then our gorgeous arrangement
arrived. It was all synchronized! In my heart I thanked Marilyn for
making it all run smoothly.
"You can shed tears that she is gone,
or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back,
or you can open your eyes and see all she's left.
You can cry and close your mind,
be empty and turn your back.
Or you can do what she'd want:
smile, open your eyes, love and go on.”
Let’s remember her with love and joy in our heart.
Have a beautiful Memorial weekend!
With love,
Carla Orlandi-Smith
