I'm terribly sorry to hear of your loss. Having lived a good many years, and having lost all of the older generation that brought me into the world, and now many of my own, it is still not easy to come to terms with the death of a friend. Perhaps Aristotle was on to it when he said that the rise of coming generations helps us to deal with the loss of past generations and contemporaries.
This moved me deeply. With your words, you allow Bridget to serve as a reminder of the importance of friendship and the ephemerality of life. Her passing has now served as a beacon of love for hundreds of strangers to channel to what is likely thousands of friends, family, and acquaintances. You give her life in this way. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Thank you for sharing with us this personal moment. Certainly had me thinking about the friends I haven't spoken to in some time, for no reason even. My heart goes out to you and I wish for nothing but peace to you and your grief.
Sorry for your loss, brother. So long as a name is spoken, a friend is never truly gone. Raise one for Bridget. She sounds like one of the good ones. RIP💝
May Bridget rest in peace, and rise in glory.
Beautiful, Jared. Both a touching tribute to a friend and a stark reminder.
Thank you for sharing Jared! I'm sorry for your loss, my condolences to you and her family <3
Love this. Love that you express your affection for her through your writing knowing what the written word meant to her.
My condolences ❤️
Memory Eternal
So powerful and such a moving tribute. I’ll be keeping you and Bridget in my prayers
