IN MEMORIAM©

______________________________________

As individual as a snowflake, as beautiful and as short lived...

I lost a friend.
He was my Art instructor and a colleague of mine at the Academy for Lifelong Learning @ the University of Delaware in Wilmington.
He was a great inspiration -believed in me- and supported my new life as a professional artist.

-In MEMORIAM-

**KEN OSBORN**

There you are
high up and far away.
Your light is shining:
you are a star.
But you're more.
You are a great artist
And mentor;
a dear person to me.

That day the sun took you with her
behind the horizon
where Light will shine for ever.
Your dearest stay behind
with a sky
full of memories.

Your light went off,
but you're still shining!
We are touched
and warm ourselves
onto the light of your soul.
