Susan Olvera Flores

"Now cracks a noble heart. Good night sweet prince[ss]:


And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest!"

Every child begins the world again, to some extent, and loves to stay outdoors, even in wet and cold. It plays house, as well as horse, having an instinct for it...

Thoughts Concerning Susan
Aaron--


The Bonds Between Us

The bonds between us are best shown when we are grieving. With heavy hearts do we remember the moments we have shared with those dearly departed.
What binds us together may just be a string of coincidences, or conversations in passing,
or it may be deeper--a friendship or memories that've been forged together.
To lose someone, no matter the bond, will begin the grief.
To lose a person,
To lose a daughter,
To lose a student, a classmate, a team mate.
To lose a friend.
But in facing the cruel hand of death, the hand that has whisked away one we loved, we cherished,
We have nothing more to do than stand together, and strenthen the bonds.
The bonds that hold us together through the dark and the light,
The bonds that hold us together when we are grieving.

The loss of soeone so great, such as Susan Olver, is incomprehensible. Though I did not know her personally, I know of her benevolent personality and how it graced all those around her. As we mourn our loss of Susan, let us cherish the memories and moments she has shared with us.
