Hi, There!
I just recently found out that a walking partner of mine (every day at lunch time) passed away. Her name was Hildegard and she was an inspiration to me. Hilde would be walking regardless of the heat of the afternoon or the coldness for that afternoon. I started making Hilde birthday cards two years ago and this May was her 89th birthday but she never showed for her walk. So, Hilde, here is your card and I would like to believe that you can see it and I am sure you are enjoying your walks in heaven. You were my friend, my confidant, and I was blessed to know you and I am so happy our walking paths crossed. My walks are a little sadder now but I am sure in time I will be smiling and thinking of you during those winter months when you would scold me for not wearing a hat!! Happy Birthday and saying good-bye to my walking partner. Hugs ~ CaroleAnn

So sorry for the loss of your friend CaroleAnn. I'm sure your cards were a blessing to her. This one is lovely. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteBless your heart Carole Ann! I'm so sorry for your loss. What a wonderful tribute to your walking companion and I'm sure she is smiling at you right now!! What a gorgeous card and a beautifully colored design!! BIGGEST HUGS
ReplyDeleteI have no doubt at all that she knows all about this card & is bragging about it in Heaven right now! I can only imagine the joy you brought to her with your sunshiny personality & your beautiful cards! Saying a prayer for both of you!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you have lost a friend! Be shure she will walk near you sometimes, and she hears you always! So sad post and wonderful card!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about the loss of your friend but you made her a wonderfully cheerful card with a fabulously coloured image and lovely embellishments. I'm sure she will still walk with you, if not in person, then in spirit.
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking the time to leave a lovely comment on my blog xx
Oh Carole I am so sorry for your loss! I'm sure she see's her card and just LOVES it!! You will see her again one day and she'll probably still be reminding you to 'put a hat on' this winter when you are walking! Hugs from Ohio!
