Tributes
Leave a tributeYou were like a younger sister to me. There is heartache knowing that we cannot speak with words anymore, but I know that your presence is all around me. You are in every song we listened to, every Taco Bell fire sauce packet, every craig northrup sign i pass, every beautiful breeze that blows, and every flower. I can feel your ghosty hugs, and I am comforted by our memories, our laughs, our long drives. You were one of the most baddass women I have ever met, always strong, and I will carry that on.
Rock on you beautiful lady. m/
Love,

in tuo adventu
suscipiant te martyres,
et perducant te
in civitatem sanctam Jerusalem.
Chorus angelorum te suscipiat,
et cum Lazaro quondam paupere
aeternam habeas requiem.
May the angels lead you into paradise,
may the martyrs receive you
in your coming,
and may they guide you
into the holy city, Jerusalem.
May the chorus of angels receive you
and with Lazarus once poor
may you have eternal rest.
REQUIEM aeternam dona ei, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei. Requiescat in pace. Amen.
ETERNAL rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. May she rest in peace. Amen.
With love and prayers, from Billy, Angela, Jude, & Bernadette
She let go. Without a thought or a word, she let go.
She let go of the fear. She let go of the judgments. She let go of the confluence of opinions swarming around her head. She let go of the committee of indecision within her. She let go of all the ‘right’ reasons. Wholly and completely, without hesitation or worry, she just let go.
She didn’t ask anyone for advice. She didn’t read a book on how to let go. She didn’t search the scriptures. She just let go.
She let go of all of the memories that held her back. She let go of all of the anxiety that kept her from moving forward. She let go of the planning and all of the calculations about how to do it just right. She didn’t promise to let go. She didn’t journal about it. She didn’t write the projected date in her Day-Timer. She made no public announcement and put no ad in the paper. She didn’t check the weather report or read her daily horoscope. She just let go.
She didn’t analyze whether she should let go. She didn’t call her friends to discuss the matter. She didn’t do a five-step Spiritual Mind Treatment. She didn’t call the prayer line. She didn’t utter one word. She just let go.
No one was around when it happened. There was no applause or congratulations. No one thanked her or praised her. No one noticed a thing. Like a leaf falling from a tree, she just let go.
There was no effort. There was no struggle. It wasn’t good and it wasn’t bad. It was what it was, and it is just that.
In the space of letting go, she let it all be. A small smile came over her face. A light breeze blew through her. And the sun and the moon shone forevermore.

I only knew you a short time. Met you at the reiki retreat and instantly connected. In Sedona, I tried to reach out as much as I could to offer a loving ear and support. Something in my being told me to just give you love in any way you would be open to it. I never saw this coming. I reached out to you not too long ago and got the privilege of a brief conversation. I'm so happy that I reached out to let you know you were on my mind and that you were very happy to hear that. I know you knew how loved you were by everyone especially your family. And I remember how much love and light you shined so bright. I always had this feeling that I was supposed to believe in you- something great about you- who you wanted to be, who you didn't know you were, and who you were to become- an angel <3 I still believe in you Chelsi. I believe in your journey and the ever expanded being that you are without any limitations. Only love, sister <3 I pray that you know this now- how much love you are <3 I know that you do <3 love always <3
The profound sadness of your leaving so soon is daunting. I will always know you by the smell of rose, hearing Bohemian Rhapsody and your whispers while walking with the trees. I love you more than any word could ever express.

Oh and if a big white dog with brown spots greets you that is Ike! Hang out with him, he's so cool:)
I'm so very, very sorry to hear of your deep and tragic loss. My heart goes out to you and your entire family. May legions of angels embrace, strengthen and support you now in your time of loss and grief. I only met Chelsi once but could see the bright light shining through. Sending my heart filled with love.

This photo is great!!
This photo of Chelsi was so catching, I had to research and find the location. While in Asheville last November, I met up with my neice at the Wedge Brewery. She's an artsy fartsy girl and knew she would know. And right off the bat, she did. It's a mural on the wall in Chicken Alley, downtown Asheville. Located at the intersection of Woodfin Street and Chicken Alley. http://ashevillestay.com/chicken-alley/

Chelsi and I lived in downtown Frederick together for a bit...and attended Paul Mitchell together. Among the many fun things...weird things...and memories i have stored away...i wont ever forget walking around the streets of little Frederick Maryland...making Wookie calls to eachother..
