Letter to Elly Now Passed From Us


Letter to Elly Now Passed From Us
February 12, 2009

Dear Elly,
Although we did not know each other well and memories we have of our times together are dim and far between the stories and memories of you life will live on till there is no one left on this earth to tell them, but then we’ll be making new ones with you in a place where there is no hunger, no pain, and no death.
Your life, as short as it was, held meaning and truth, the very nature of what you wanted to be, a lawyer, a Christian lawyer, proves you went after truth and justice, in a world were both are so often lacking.
Tears and longing for you may go on for a long time but there will be joy that breaks through those sad moments as we remember and celebrate that life that you lived to its fullest. As you said good-bye in those last moments you walked through Heaven’s Gates and entered the embrace of a God who loves you so very much. Be at peace dear Elly. You will be missed and you will always be loved.
Love,
Beth
