This is heartbreaking and deeply moving.
This really hits home
My word, Wild Wayne! This took me by surprise, whole body, mind, and spirit! The emotion MEGA-REAL felt unfiltered. The kind that you don't even have enough places to put it in. It feels inadequate to just say thank you for writing and sharing it, but THANK YOU! For writing and sharing your beautiful Sister and you, BIG thank you! ✨💕✨
Nothing else to say but REST IN PEACE! Good work in expressing your feelings.
REST IN PEACE!
