L'engle Funeral Quotes
The young man tell me that “we like to sing Easter humns at our funerals.” I tell him that I do not want Easter hymns at my mother’s funeral. It is too soon. I am not ready for easter yet. I have not even had time to weep.
- Madeleine L’Engle
from Summer of Great Grandmother p 236
I trickle tears during a good deal of the service, but they are quiet, controlled tears.
I do not know how to say goodbye. All I can say, within my hear, is “I love you, Mother.”
from Summer of Great Grandmother p 238
