Someone Died Today
She probably didn't have the body and amount of plastic surgery that would cause millions to become interested, but still. She died.

She had two children. Their names are not important, and it isn't important where she lived.

She died.

She had a father who died of a heart attack a few years ago, and a mother who is still alive, though still grieving.

One of her sons, the older one, wanted to join the military; the marines in particular. She told him no a thousand times. The younger one just watched, and presumably learned.

Her family has agreed to allow her to be cremated and the ashes scattered where she apparently wanted them to be scattered.

Someone Died Today.

She lived; she breathed; she loved; she gave; she died.

People are, and people were. Learn from them.

Peace.

2. Yes...
Millions and millions of them, loved, honored quoted, surrounded by their valued ones.

And those other--sad sorrowful millions who weren't.
