MOLLY, MY SUNSHINE
After I lost Molly, there was never any question of "memorializing" her, since she will remain solidly in the same place she always was; in my heart. But just by chance I happened to see a sundial in a gardening catalog, on the face of which the manufacturer would inscribe anything you wanted. Since I've always liked sundials anyway, I thought it would be a beautiful and
peaceful way to remember her. In the backyard of our house there was an old climbing rosebush, sprawling wildly in all directions, so I bought a garden arch and trained the roses up it. I placed the sundial on the pedestal beneath it, and
hung my windchimes right above. The caption on the sundial reads: "In memory of Molly -- count only the sunny hours". It is a fitting tribute to her life, since she brought so much sunshine into mine.
Thank you Molly for everything
