Grief is never something you get over. You don't wake up one morning and say, 'I've conquered that; now I'm moving on.' It's something that walks beside you every day. And if you can learn how to manage it and honour the person that you miss, you can take something that is incredibly sad and have some form of positivity. (Terri Irwin, wife of deceased Steve Irwin)
One day, Rolly and a sweet lady in our building named Verla Graham and I, went out to dinner. Our jaws were sore for a week, after all the laughter with Rolly. The takeaway is simple - turn a sad situation, into a positive memory. Rolly did just that. He was the epitome of Goodness and Happiness. The best that life has to offer to us.
Thanks, Rolly for sharing such grace and humour and kindness. (Rod Lahay in Rolly's building)
