So that the whole world may know your name...
And that you lived and loved well.

For you, we will wipe the tears
hardened by your painful goodbye

Today, the grieving will stop.

For you, we will take the first step
to moving on

Today, is the first time we will look to you above.

For you, we will cease from missing
your sunniest smiles

Today, we will embrace the truth that you're gone.

We will let you go but,
Burnie will never stop loving you
Eliana will paint her every prayer with your memories
and I will only create odes celebrating your life.

Baby Carlene, go to her now.
It's been quite a long wait.

Kristine Marie "Queenie/Kwen" B. Orqueta
Our happy Kwen.
Our smiling angel.
Goodbye for now, dear friend.
