Amity's blog: "Chassidy Howard"

Chassidy passed away on Friday Dec. 01, 2006. She was a beuatiful, sweet and full of life. When she left this world she was just 28 years old. Chassidy had a long and hard fight with leukemia. She had been placed in the hospital on Nov. 24th due to blood clots. To know Chassidy was only to love her. She touched the lives of all of those that she had ever meet. Even during her sickness she always tried to smile and keep everyone happy. She thought of others before herself. We had laughed together and cried together. She was there to always pick me up. I know she is in a better place now. That she will never hurt again but still its hard to accept that she is gone. I am dedicating this blog to her and to all of those that have leukemia. Light a Candle Light a candle for those we mourn. Into a new life they will be born. Do not look for them at the gravesite. They are somewhere else radiating their beautiful light. They have gone to a new world where there is no darkness, no pain. Their light and essence will always remain. Light a candle for those who have left this mortal place. They are free to travel through time and space. When we think of them, they are near. When we sit in a beautiful garden. Their voices we hear. When we listen to a divine symphony, We close our eyes, their faces we see. Light a candle for they have not really gone. With each flickering flame, in your hearts they will always belong.
