On bended knee he lovingly knelt by the flower laden grave site like a reverent knight. Who’s resting place was it that he so prayerfully visited I wondered, that was nestled in the corner of the small graveyard by the roadsides edge. As I drove by and he became part of the past, I found myself unable to erase the image of this young man who for but a few small moments had become an integral part of my present, leaving behind an imprint upon my mind. For whom did he mourn and what painful circumstances brought him to this place in time where our paths had crossed. I know him not, yet his sorrowful Energy reached out to me. As I drove by I whispered a silent prayer that the Angels would send care and comfort to him in this time of suspended grief.
Days passed by and although the chance encounter was for but a second or two it played in slow motion over and again inside my thoughts. This newly departed soul was now an Angel that seemed to be urging me to learn of their name. I was drawn back to the place I had only days before driven so quickly by, only this time I pulled the car to a stop in front of the large iron gate. There were no visitors about as I entered and approached the spot where I had seen the solemn man. A small silver marker placed at the head of the site spoke of a girl born the same year as my oldest son, only twenty three physical years spent here on earth, she must now be a very special Angel indeed. Though I did not know her while she walked the earth, I feel that I have now made a new Angel friend. I paused for a moment of silence.
“Dear Christie, though those who knew you here on earth miss your human form,
you are not really gone for I feel your Spirit here.
May your Soul overflow with happiness and may you dance with the Angels for all eternity.”
Christie passed away from a condition known as Long QT Syndrome, but had never been diagnosed. Learn more about how her loving family and friends have been committed to working with the American Heart Association to raise funds for continued heart disease research and with the Sudden Arrhythmia Death Syndromes Foundation to educate the public and raise awareness of Long QT, a potential silent killer at Christie’s Heartoberfest.com.
