She was one,
one of the thirty six,
one of the thirty six righteous men
who keep their lamps lit,
bringing light to this generation.
Her flame extinguished in this world
but her soul shines on
in brilliance and love.
Dedicated to the memory of Verla Simmons, truly a good person and my friend.

I jumped when I saw you had a new post. Happy to see you, my friend, but so very very sorry for the loss of your friend. Such a difficult thing to have to say farewell to the people who are important to us. Sending you lots of love ❤
Oh Kathleen, so sorry to hear of the passing of your friend. We all are losing friends these days, it seems. Always so sad. She sounds like a person of light. You will miss her.
