I am so very sorry for your friend and all those who have to continue their lives without her remarkable presence...you included.
I have found comfort in this NA poem and perhaps you will too.
Big hugs.

DO NOT STAND AT MY
GRAVE AND WEEP

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.


I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.


When you wake in the morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.


Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die!


Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.


I am the song that will never end.
I am the love of family and friend.
I am the child who has come to rest
In the arms of the Father
who knows her best.


When you see the sunset fair,
I am the scented evening air.
I am the joy of a task well done.
I am the glow of the setting sun.


Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die!

Thanks SuZamme. The funeral was very moving and emotional but I do know Diane is a peaceful safe place now and I will see her again. She better be ready to play some ball :)

Thanks for all the condolences. This tragedy has touched our community so much. It's amazing how a few seconds can change so many lives. School starts next week and it's going to be tough on the faculity and students alike. All that we can do is continue to pray and support each other. Time will ease the pain but I'm not sure I can ever forgive him. I really need to work on that....................
