Susan et Raymond

The meaning of Friendship is what we are all about. Our chosen family that is a testament to all of us who exist on this earth. Many are present but few are those who leave an everlasting touch. Susan and Raymond came into my life as guests and left as dear friends that elevated to a member of my family, the chosen ones. Every smile and laughter was always genuine, her eyes would light up as she told a story, and we would all laugh and Raymond would be by her side as we would share our histories of travel, pets and our next adventure. Susan would immediately make you feel a part of the story and include you as a major actor. Habits are made to be broken but every visit was more than that,, a welcome warmth that was felt throughout Bonaparte. They both kept their child like spirit of being spontaneous and adventurous. We would ask when was their next voyage going to be elated as if just maybe we could find the time to go along. Susan et Raymond have left their mark on us for toujours. An emptiness has taken place as she has decided to take another trip, this time without us ,, but her presence is entirely there. Melancoly is at the door waiting to be invited. I continue to live as Susan would want and I continue to testify of her good works and say merci to Raymond for having shared a person of such high calibre. We shall never forget about the sincerity and human kindness of Susan. The Angels above have sounded the trumpets to announce the coronation of yet another special person Susan. Ladies and gentleman , Montréal and I raise my glass to Susan et Raymond.
