John and I attended a Celebration of Life service in South Lake Tahoe.
This is the view from the home where the wake was held.
Although it was a sad occasion, we all enjoyed being with one another.
We were able to meet some new people and see others we hadn't seen in a long time.
The service was held outdoors, with a blue sky over us and
beautiful tall trees for our walls. It was a lovely, intimate celebration of our friend's life.
I can't think of a more fitting way to say goodbye.
This tree is near the site of the service and her final resting place.
