selfless heart and an open spirit. She had a rare and beautiful gift
—the ability to accept others, flaws and all, in a way that was
almost unfathomable.
Though she led a simple life, she was no stranger to great
challenges. Yet, she faced every trial with the inner strength of a
lion and the gentleness of a lamb.
I have no doubt that there is a special place for her in the
heavens. I am living testimony to the unconditional love she so
freely and generously offered to those fortunate enough to know
her—a love that never faltered, and never diminished.
102 years—just 27 days shy of 103—is not a gift bestowed upon
just anyone. Her passage here on earth was filled with quiet
purpose, though often cloaked in the seemingly mundane. She
moved through life with grace, leaving behind a legacy of
humility, compassion, and unwavering love.
The void I now feel is deep, but it is softened by the sweet, lasting
memories of you. Your kindness, your sweetness, your (gran
moun) wisdom, and your gentle strength will remain with me
always.
Fly like an angel Manyann. Your love lives on.
Your son Patrick Pelissier
