Becky
Lance, Jarrett and the rest of the Lastimosa Ohana....
It has been a bittersweet process in knowing our classmate, Lorena has passed on—
We have lost our friend, and therefore our connection to a part of our youth that cannot be recaptured only remembered as…”In Our Hearts”
The following is a poem that I've found on-line and have adapted....
"In Our Hearts"
We thought of you "Lorena" with love today.
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday.
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We remember how you look.
Now all we have is memories.
And your pictures in our year books.
Your memory is our keepsake.
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our hearts..
I suggest we can all agree that death is a part of life, perhaps the last chapter of our life on this earth. As some have noted, the journey to death starts the day we are born. The difference for all of us is the path we follow and the length of time of that journey.
On behalf of Kauai High School, Class of 1975, we express our deepest sympathy to you, Lance, Garret and the rest of the Lastimosa Ohana. We will miss our dear classmate, Lorena Lisa "Lastimosa" Nanod, at our reunions.
God Bless you all,
Rebecca "Becky" Coyamin and Ricky Imada
