Lisa K. Grahn

I want to say so many things, for now I will simply say this; Until we meet again, I will think of you every single day. I will reminice about the many happy memories we've shared, and there have been many. I know I will see you again, our love is too powerful to not. You are a part of me, forever. I love you with all my heart. Your loving sister and friend, Siri.

God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you, and whispered, ''come with me.'' With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, HE ONLY TAKES THE BEST!Thanks to all of our friends who made this trip possible for Lisa, we had a GREAT! time.

When we decided to take Lisa on a vacation prior to her journey down the road for treatment, Lisa said to me: And this is such a Lisa thing to say, to me, her younger, but motherly sister Siri. She said ''So, when we go, you're not going to act like my mom are you', we get to lay by the pool and have cocktails all day right''' I had to laugh. My response to Lisa was ''Lisa this is your trip, anything goes!'' So off we went. And we did just that, any and everything we wanted. Laid by the pool all day, had cocktails, ordered the cute pool boys around, ate wonderful food, danced until dawn. And had lots of laughs. I will remember this trip forever, with a smile. Siri
