It makes me so happy to see all of the love for our Shasta in this thread. I'm sure she's looking down from Heaven reading each and every one of your beautiful posts. She was a wonderful person, so spirited, so positive and upbeat. Even when she was suffering terribly, she always managed to inject positive energy and humor into her emails and messages. Well, you all already know that because you've read them! My heart hurts so much right now. This news was a tremendous kick in the ass. Like all of you, I was hoping her silence was simply because she was getting better and back at work part time, like she said she'd probably do.
Also, thank you everyone for your PMs to me. I will respond to them all, but there are so many!! But thank you! That means a lot. Shasta and I were very close. Very. And I know a lot of you were very close to her as well. And while I love and cherish everyone here at Bettermost, Shasta was a part of my very special inner circle of Brokie friends.
She was a wonderful person.
And I know she's up there now with Richard and a few of the other Brokies who have passed on and now belong to the Ages. And they are all looking down on us, smiling on us, watching over us and protecting us. Heaven gained a very bright soul on September 22nd. God only made one Jane, and I for one am very thankful I got to know her, as brief as it was.
I am going to miss her terribly.
