“Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quietest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey.”

― Pat Conroy

Cora, An Unbroken Circle of Life

Our hearts ache with her absence, but her presence lingers everywhere, woven into the fabric of our memories. Cora’s life was a circle—a never-ending loop of joy, adventure, and love.

We remember our Thanksgiving gatherings at Bob & Wendy’s home; the table overflowing with food and camaraderie. She had a way of making every occasion feel extraordinary.

Cora’s love for life was matched only by her love for her family. She was the glue that held us together, the one who reminded us to cherish the special moments. Whether it was a Christmas in Leavenworth, a visit to Colorado, Mexico, Hawaii or an evening together. She made sure we were surrounded by care and love.

When she passed, it felt like the world had lost its color. Her essence is still here, in the memories we share, in the love she left behind. She was in the lotus that bloomed in the pond and in the stories we recounted.

Though she may have passed beyond our sight, her spirit remains, a radiant beam of light guiding us through the memories we recall. As we remember her, we know she will always be with us, a cherished memory, a beacon of light, and an unbroken circle of life.
