The sweet wee Scottish ball of love and acceptance that won the hearts of everyone that met her left this earth today at 106.
Martha Park - you totally touched me and will remain in my heart's lining. For our beautiful mother, Rita whose both challenged and blessed with Alzheimer's at this time of loss, you've been a friend, a mother, a sister, roommate, duet and a gift. 'You Are My Sunshine' will never be the same.
Although this internal garden feels like winter now, I look forward to what will grow from the seeds you've watered.

If you've had the good fortune to be touched by such an elder, raise your glass high!
I remain committed to illuminating the beauty I see within the depths of everyone I meet.
