Calendar Girl Blog: Magnitude
Magnitude is not a word I throw around lightly. Indeed, it is the only word that currently comes to mind.
Well over 500 people found their way into the River Run Centre for yesterday's memorial for Henry Kock. Standing room only, people lining the balcony, faces of all ages, dressed in all fashions, tears, laughter...looks of utter disbelief. Hugging...so many people hugging.
The east facing glass wall, looks out over one of our two rivers. Snow fell lightly. Brightly coloured hearts rested everywhere. Speakers so eloquent, so heartfelt, so completely naked in their love of Henry, graced our ears with their words. Songs beautifully written and sung floated through the air.
Calendar Girl held and was held. As she left with Anne and friends, snow flakes fat and juicy, dropped like small eggs from the sky. Calendar Girl understands the magnitude of grief waiting to greet the love of Henry's life. The long haul has begun.
