Missy ~ Beloved Sister
"What might have been and what has been
Point to one end, which is always present.
Footfalls echo in the memory
Down the passage which we did not take
Towards the door we never opened
Into the rose-garden."
-T S Eliot, Four Quartets
Point to one end, which is always present.
Footfalls echo in the memory
Down the passage which we did not take
Towards the door we never opened
Into the rose-garden."

Missy loved her two sisters, Sarah and Julie. And, in turn, Sarah and Julie loved their sister Missy.
Sarah, at Westmont College, enjoyed the sisterly sharing and fun that was part of the last school year with Missy close by at Biola University.
Julie loved having Missy as a big sister. They had come together in their relationship in these last few years, and Julie was looking forward to her visits with Missy in college at Biola.
We all have sweet memories of three girls up late laughing and giggling, sharing in the silliness of life, as well as sharing the deeper things of life.
We can't help ourselves: The pained thoughts of what might have been... The footfalls echoing in the memory towards the door never opened...
