I
think it could be said that in many ways these have been times that have
tried my soul. In what was in an all too short a span of time the
presence of 4 beautiful souls have been taken from us. I say this in no
way to disparage the memory of any of these 4 beautiful people all you
need to know about their greatness, love and understanding is that they
excepted The Count as a friend. No easy to task. But the passing of Eileen Turri was one that I have taken especially hard.
Such an intelligent, beautiful, loving soul. I have said many times I
was in nearly in awe of her. The way she carried herself her amazing
understanding and intelligence. I have had my own share of demons and
issues in the past year. I do not doubt that losing her all to soon as
well as the passing of such wonderful people as Kimberlee, Jon, and
Donna have played a role in whatever It was that I was going through
this spring and summer. I also have no doubt that had Eileen been here
she would have said in her stern but loving way...You're better than
this it's time to get on with your life. And then of course she would
have stood by you the whole time as you did just that.
I don't
fully know Eileen's personal stance on issues of Spirituality. I do know
that even if she personally wouldn't identify herself as one
Christians could do so much worse to find a role model on how to conduct
their lives than Eileen. However I do know where I stand on such issues
after a fashion. I will not close by saying God Bless Eileen Turri. I
will just close by saying God blessed me for having known Eileen Turri.
