Beautiful Lori. Tessa would love that you posted photos of her beautiful land... Africa!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post Lori!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry for the loss of your friend. ♥
So sad but there is another star in the skies over Africa
ReplyDeleteTessa's legacy will live in in her wonderful family - real - and blogging. I will think of her every time I see a glorious, vivid sunset and of course, every time I see or hear something of Africa.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely bond the two of you had!
Love, always, (and please keep Allegra in your prayers)

oh Lori, what an extraordinarily beautiful post.
ReplyDeleteShe was an amazing woman and she IS an amazing spirit still among us.
As I've said in other tributes to her, I believe she's doing her true work now. She earned her wings on earth and now she's flying free.
her work has only just begun.
Much love to you for the loss of such a dear friend.♥

I know that Tessa will love this. To me she is still there, very real. And she has done and started so much - think of Maithri`s great work she supported, and "our" little school in Moz, and the paintings she left us, and her calendars and children`s invitations, and most of all, her bubbly joy. Yes, you and her surely are related, Lori, and I am so glad for having found you both!
ReplyDeleteThis collection of photos and your words ring sweetly.I can only imagine Tessa smiling smiling at you.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for the loss of your friend.
Big Hugs,Cat
What a beautiful tribute to her and her life. I'm sorry for your loss.
