The Gilmerites....in memory of Gilmer Part 2

continues from here:
https://www.soberrecovery.com/forums...gilmer-20.html (The Gilmerites....in memory of Gilmer)

I found a random quote which encapulates Kathy well

I meant to say too - if anyone wants to write a memory post for Gilmer in the Memory Garden Forum, please feel free to do so.

https://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/memory-garden/

Someone can start a thread and anyone else can add to it ...if they like.

I feel as if I've contributed enough threads there for now

I dreamt of her last night....she was talking to me about plants. Telling me about her one sad pothos, and how she had a "black thumb" where I have a green one. She was telling me this again, and smiling big this time because well, she ended up getting that little plant to thrive, and we both know that.

That's sweet Vee...I've heard that dreaming of a lost loved one means they were paying you a visit

When I first heard this song it was for an art contest that Shinedown was holding a few months ago....it made me think of Gilmer

how very special Kathy came to you Suze! I find "visits" like that very comforting.

Not a day goes by that I don’t think of Kathy - and dearly miss her.

I was just looking through some threads in another forum and came across a response from Kathy. It kind of took my breath away. I miss her.

Duffster, that happened to me yesterday too!
I read Kathy’s response in a thread, and it was in her last few months on earth and she was so lovely to the hypothetical question what was being asked. My heart filled with love for her.
