The worst part of life is waiting. The best part of life is having someone worth waiting for.
-Jessica Brumley

Vores kære veninde gennem mange år er ikke længere hos os.
Our dear friend through many years is no longer with us.

For many years I’ve been looking forward to the annual spring meeting with old colleagues. The youngest of us, Jane, died suddenly Thursday 8th. of March. Only 57 years was given her.
I have known her since we were young back in 1975.
She was as a very positive person who loved people and life. Joy was her in her companion.

Waiting is ok, but don’t forget living.

This photo was her own choice for her Facebook profile. I grabbed it there.

Dear fellow bloggers
I hope you have all had a good day.

This time there’s no photo in the post. I’m fighting a five star cold, and my mood is not for posting today.
This means that most of my senses are weak so I’d better go to sleep. An exception is the loud ringing in my ears, indicating that someone might be thinking of me.

I’ll be with you later.

Det har været en smuk dag i dag. Og en vemodig dag.
Vi måtte sige farvel til vores kære ven gennem 45 år.
Bjørn trådte forkert, faldt og endte brat sit liv alt for tidligt. I dag ville Bjørn have fyldt 59 å.
De musikalske brødre, venner og kolleger, samt ikke mindst familien, mødtes i kapellet og gjorde Bjørns afsked smuk og rørende.
Efterfølgende samvær i hjemmet med musik og nærvær afsluttede højtidelighederne.
Bjørn efterlader sig tre brave kvinder. Sin hustru og to store døtre.
Æret være dit minde Bjørn.
It was a beautiful day today. And a melancholy day.
We had to say goodbye to our dear friend through 45 years.
Bjørn took a wrong step and fell. Abruptly ending his life far too early. Today would have been Bjørns 59 years birthday.
His musical brothers, friends and colleagues, and especially the family, met in the chapel and made Bjørns farewell beautiful and touching.
Subsequent togetherness at his home with music and intimacy completed the ceremonies.
Bjørn is survived by his three brave women. His wife and two great daughters.
We honor your memory Bjørn.

A little help to those few of you who do not read (understand) Danish:
The sign says:
Tuborg has birthday
that’s why Red Tuborg is back
-but only for few days!

My mother did not drink beer -except on very special occasions. But when she did, she preferred Red Tuborg.
