Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and, the eyes with which we look and see the world are echoes from our soul - to a beautiful lady inside and out, your magical, mystical prescience is all around, peace, love and harmony.

So sad that today’s the day we say goodbye to my old friend Gena. Thirty-four years of treasured friendship seems to have gone in a flash and it has certainly ended way too soon. In the short time Gena was here she made a lifetime full of wonderful happy memories. Gena you would have made a fabulous godmother to my little boy, who has only been with me for a week, but I know for sure that he has one heck of a fairy godmother watching over him. What a lucky boy that makes him. I still feel your presence all around and you’ve sent little reminders at the most opportune times since you passed away. You’l be forever in my heart - love you loads. 💕💕💕
