Thoughts
"Life is eternal, and love is immortal, and death is only a horizon;
and a horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight."
My condolences go out to the entire Kerppola family. Marianna, your mom is an inspiration and I feel truly blessed to have even known her story.
My prayers are with you.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland
