Three Bleeding Hearts



Today is the memorial gathering hosted by Cape Cod Hospice. 
Three of us in the family will attend.
Three will be remembered.

Mom, 
who fought a valiant fight against pancreatic cancer,
and for whom Hospice provided a peaceful final journey;
Rita,
her sister who unexpectedly succumbed to an infection
she couldn't overcome, two weeks before Mom passed away;
Dana,
our nephew, Mom's 18 year-old grandson,
the sole occupant in a single vehicle accident,
tragically taken from us far too soon.  

Mom, Rita, and Dana,
we honor and remember you today and every day.
