I have been profoundly touched and blessing by knowing Trish. Her kindness and spirit has meant so much to me and my life.
Trish, you will always be missed and your beautiful spirit will always live on in our hearts. I will never forget.

Although I did not know Trish, I do know the pain of losing someone so dear and important in your life. I would like to share 2 poems that was a comfort to me during such a painful time, and hope they me bring you all some comfort as well.
Four Candles for You
by Unknown
The first candle represents our grief.
The pain of losing you is intense.
It reminds us of the depth of our love for you.
This second candle represents our courage.
To confront our sorrow,
To comfort each other,
To change our lives.
This third candle we light in your memory.
For the times we laughed,
The times we cried,
The times we were angry with each other,
The silly things you did,
The caring and joy you gave us.
This fourth candle we light for our love.
We light this candle that your light will always shine.
As we enter this holiday season and share this night of remembrance
with our family and friends.
We cherish the special place in our hearts
that will always be reserved for you.
We thank you for the gift
your living brought to each of us.
We love you.
We remember you.
Remember ME
To the living, I am gone.
To the sorrowful, I will never return.
To the angry, I was cheated.
To the happy, I am at peace.
To the faithful, I have never left.
I cannot speak, but I can listen.
I cannot be seen but I can be heard.
So as you look in awe at a mighty forest and its grand majesty,
Remember me.
Remember me in your heart, your thoughts, and your memories.
Of the times we cried, the times we fought, and the times we laughed.
For if you always think of me, I will never have gone.

I went to my meeting tonight and sat there quietly. Till I was called on. Then I lost it in front of 40 people. Its just hard to face the fact I can never call her or talk to her again. The last time I talked to her was a little over a week ago. I was on my way to look at a house and left my mapquest directions on my desk. So, I called Trish. (she seemed to always be on-line) Asked her to do a mapquest search for me. We were laughing as she gave me directions to my destination over the phone 2500 miles away. I had no idea that would be our last conversation.
I'll light my favorite candle at 10:00 also.
The only thing I keep thinking is we all
have to keep fighting, harder than we
ever have to stay or get sober.
Seems like a good way to honor her.....

Stupid question, I need to find a song and I dont even know it. Its a female singer. Something about "you can take a train, or plane, just get here." Something like that. Im not even sure if thats right. "just get here" I know this is probbaly no help. If anyone knows this song, please send me a PM. Its very important to me.
JUSTIN GUARINI LYRICS
"Get Here"
You can reach me by railway, you can reach me by trailway
You can reach me on an airplane, you can reach me with your mind
You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man
I don't care how you get here, just get here if you can
You can reach me by sail boat, climb a tree and swing rope to rope
Take a sled and slide down the slope, into these arms of mine
You can jump on a speedy colt, cross the border in a blaze of hope
I don't care how you get here, just get here if you can
There are hills and mountains between us
Always something to get over
If I had my way, surely you would be closer
I need you closer oh closer
You can windsurf into my life, take me up on a carpet ride
You can make it in a big balloon, but you better make it soon
You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man yeah
I don't care how you get here, just get here if you can
I don't care, I need you right here right now
I need you right here right now right by my side
Yeah yeah yeah
I don't care how you get here, just get here, get here
I don't care how you get here, just get here if you can
Get here if you can
"Get Here"
