A Poem by Gretchen's Mother Julie...

[grrretel]

I was reading a collection of Victorian epitaphs, and came across one for a 27-year old girl that threw me a curve, and got me thinking. So, I prefaced mine with the lines, and hope that it's appropriate

it's beautiful. ask her mom if she really wants to do that "pressurizing thingy" that she was telling us about last night. you said it cost a lot, but i guarantee the money will be there.

Hmm, I was just talking about my Gretchypeu with a friend last night that missed her death because he was in Iraq (Army boy), and he was asking if it was true and the details...
I'll point him towards this post...

I almost shit a brick when I saw her icon. Quite frankly, for half a second I thought that her passing was a nightmare that I had had one night, and everything was alright.

Honestly, thank you for making me cry at work, because it made me feel... something. It's good to feel things sometimes, the good and the bad.

Geeze, I miss you Gretchen.

I freaked too, to see her icon.
That brought tears to my eyes. I only knew her for a short time, but I don't have the heart to remove her from my friends list. :(
