Making every moment count

When anyone asks me what I would wish for I always say - I want to die before my children, a parent should never have to bury their child. Such sad news.

Hi Tara, This was a real wake up call. Miss you! XXOO

[Relyn]

Before I read your words, I was caught by your image. I thought, "You own this?" I have got to see your entire cabinet d' curiosities dome day.

[Tara Bradford]

Melanie, I'm so terribly sorry to hear about your friend. What a tragedy! It is quite shocking how everything can change in the blink of an eye. xo

Such a tragedy - so young still and so talented. So very, very sad. Yes make every moment count - you are so very right, Tara~xo

[Mélanie Aussandon]

You found the perfect quote.

God bless her and her family. I look into the eyes of the photograph and it makes me smile. These angels surround us, rather it be at our worst of times or at our best of times.

Beautiful remembrance... She was so young and full of life... She simply shined with love and joy. She is a star of the Universe now.

[Brenda Kula]

She was such a beautiful woman. Like her mother and aunt. She will be missed. So sad for her children too.

I tried to leave a comment earlier , so forgive me if you get 2! I wanted to say how sad and tragic Natasha's death was. IT just makes one realize how something can happen at any moment. Live life to it's fullest and always follow your heart. MY prayers go out to her family. And...I just want you to know ,Tara, that you are a very special and wonderful person!

We never know when it's our time to move on. I try and remember this every day. xo

Funny but when I read the headline on my computer this morning I felt a little queasy. I'm usually okay with those things...but something about that family is endearing to me. I really like them.
It is a tragedy, and I'm very sorry for their loss. It was so unnecessary.

Your quote, stresses quality over quantity. Appropriate.

I was shocked that someone so healthy and vibrant could die after such an ordinary accident, so sad.

[Dawn]

So sad to hear that this beautiful, talented lady has passed away.

[marilyn]

Yes, it is important to make each moment count. I have been saddened this week for Natasha and her family.

I was about to post something similar in my blog. Life is so brief Tara, it is a priviledge to die old. We are like flames burning brightly for a shinning instant.
