One year ago my aunt died.
One year ago my family's heart broke.
Today, I have two words: Fuck Cancer
You are not gone.
I may not recognize you right away
But then I feel warmth,
Look into a smile,
Sometimes I even hear laughter,
I know it is you.
You are not gone.
The joy you brought
Continues on,
It lifts me up and my heart sings,
Sometimes I even hear laughter,
I know it is you.
You are not gone.
In my thoughts and my dreams
Find your warmth,
See your smile,
I even hear your laugh,
I know it is you.

Edythe's cancer was a curse, but she would never tell you that. She was brave, strong, and full of spunk, to her last days.
She never gave up her bad jokes.
She never gave up her straight face when telling you "I never knew you couldn't sing!"
She never gave up making other people feel great.
Edythe never gave up.
LOVE.
