I was [ how you felt ] when I heard the news of Anneliese's passing. When I first learned the 1st trip to the hospital for Covid I was praying and so worried and missing her posting on fb and chatting in messager. When she came home was so very glad to hear from her and know she was home and prayed for her complete recovery. when she went back in and was not able to talk or post again was really missing her , because she just brought a glow and smile to each day you were touched by her . It did not have to be the chats one on one although those were definately the best and so precious , when we could open and share and be so raw and real , to know there was that special person to turn to and confide in when needed or to just be silly and make us laugh or smile and it was a 2 way relationship. When I learned she was gone from this earth and I would never again see her posts or read or chat with her and hear about her life and how happy she was , I was broken hearted and knew a very precious beacon of light had left us . our world got just a tiny bit darker without our precious girl in it . BUT I FEEL EXTREMELY BLESSED GOD PUT THIS BEAUTIFUL SOUL IN MY LIFE AND FOR ALL THE MANY YEARS OF FREINDSHIP WE SHARED . FOR KNOWING I WAS THERE FOR HER WHEN SHE NEEDED ME AND THAT OUR LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP BEGAN SO MANY YEARS AGO AS MANY OF US HAVE AS PUBLIX COWORKERS , BUT WE IMMEDIATELY BECOME PART OF THE PUBLIX FAMILY AND WE ARE LIFETIME MEMBERS . NO MILES , NO YEARS AWAY , NOT EVEN DEATH WILL TEAR US APART WE ARE FOREVER IN EACH OTHERS HEARTS AND FOR ALL THIS I THANK GOD DEEPLY .  I AM SO THRILLED SHE HAD A NEW LOVE AND EVEN THOUGH IT WAS WAY TOO SHORT IT WAS FULL OF QUALITY AND MADE HER EXTREMELY HAPPY .  I AM SO GLAD SHE HAD HER PRECIOUS ANNIE AND HARPER TO GIVE HER THE JOY AND LOVE ONLY BEING A GRANDMA CAN BRING AND I PRAY THE GIRLS NEVER FORGET THEIR MEMORIES WITH HER AND THEY KNOW AND CARRY WITH THEM THE REST OF THEIR LIVES HOW DEEPLY SHE LOVED THEM . THEY ARE HER PRIDE AND JOY AND  SHE IS WITH THEM ALWAYS IN THEIR HEARTS AND HOPEFULLY MEMORIES TOO.  I HOPE DANIEL ALSO KNOWS AND CARRIES WITH HIM HOW DEEPLY DEVOTED SHE WAS TO HIM , THAT HE REALIZES HE WAS THE 1ST LOVE OF HER HEART . WHEN WE CARRY A CHILD UNDER OUR HEART FOR 9 MNTHS .& RAISE THEM ITS FOREVER LOVE WITH NO END . LOVE YOU LEISSY REST IN PEACE MY DARLING <3
