When my days of life have ended
And my time on earth is done
I’ll lay my weary head down
And turn my face towards the sun.
I’ll hold a thought of you, dear,
As my heartbeats slow to none.
I’ll carry your love and laughter with me
On my journey back to One.

-Pam Donison

Quick Background: Pam is a good friend of Colleen and the girls. She started out as Colleen’s attorney and quickly become a friend and confidant through the legal process and her battle with ovarian cancer. Pam sent us this poem yesterday. The subject of the email was- “From Colleen.” This is what her email said: “Early this morning I was awakened with a poem — i had no idea why but it poured out already composed — and I feel certain Colleen was sending this to you…. I’m honored to be the messenger and please know I am holding you all in my heart. ” We are so grateful for Pam and her calming spirit. This poem was a sign that Colleen is ok. It has provided a tremendous amount of peace for the girls.

    To each of you I send my love and hope that the memories you have of your incredibly special mother, mother-in-law and grandma will bring you a sense of peace and joy. Pam’s poem certainly shows Colleen’s ability to continue to reach out to others. You are loved,

    Danielle and Sisters,

    I am so deeply sorry. My family has been lighting candles for your Mom at church since 2007. Your Mom’s beautiful eyes and smile will live forever.
