You may have noticed that I have been a bit out of touch with many of you for a while with newsletters and such. I am now ready to share some news of endings and new beginnings.
Our family has been tending to my sister-in-law, Debbie Koerner, (yes same name as me!) during her strong fight with pancreatic cancer to be with us here on earth as long as possible. Last Thursday she transitioned and we pray that she is finally at peace.
Awaiting death to be born again into spirit is like awaiting birth to be born into this world in body. You never know when the time will come and being there to hold space for a loved one and their family is such a beautiful blessing. I held space for Debbie through sound and meditation which helped her find peace, comfort and rest. Debbie especially loved the handpan and tibetan bowls as did her sweet dog, Evie, who would curl up for a nap and still be passed out as I was leaving.
I am forever grateful for our close sisterhood, for her love of my younger brother and putting up with his goofy personality, for being a nurturing, compassionate, mother to my niece (Godchild) and nephew and a fun, supportive Aunt for my girls.
Debbie will continue to be with us in spirit, serving as a reminder to live life with joy and love as she did. My almost 4 year grandson said now she will be back to haunt people which would totally be something she would have fun doing!
A full obituary is in the comments.
Thank you for your prayers.
Love, Deb
