I just came back home from a "Celebration of Life": service . It was very moving and you get to know things about the person you never knew before. She was an example of what a BraveheartWoman is.She followed her dreams and accomplished all she set out to do.She had traveled the
world,lived in exotic places and excelled in her career.
A friend and co-worker,said that during the time,that she was part of the hotel,where she was VP of Operations - she was in charge of the whole operational side of the Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas - customer satisfaction was surpassed every year and it never happened again after she had left. Everyone still remembers her with love and respect. Some people are irreplaceable.
What touched us all,was how much she cared about the people she worked with,how she treated them with compassion and respect.How her family was her pride and joy'
and how much she loved each one of her siblings.
Sitting there and watching her life's journey reminded me once again of
how precious every moment is . How important it is to stay connected with family and friends.How it will fill your family's heart with pride and joy to realize how many lives
you have touched during your life.
It is awesome for us to have and enjoy all the material possessions we can acquire,but how we lived our life is what really matters in the end.
People will not remember how much money you amassed,all the trips you took,but they will remember the
peoples' lives you touched,the kids you helped ,your kindness and compassion towards others less fortunate,.I do hope,that ,many,many years from now, when they celebrate my life,that I would have made a difference on this planet ,however small it may be.That's true legacy.

Hi Bea,

What a touching and heartfelt story. It is true that we remember the people who are full of love and giving.

With that in mind, know that you have already made a big difference on this planet with your kind and loving nature. You may not be aware of those whom you have touched, but rest assured, they will always remember you - myself being one of them.

Much love,

Chineme
