Awww, Kris! Thank you for your beautiful message and for your kind thoughts and wishes for me and Witchy. I have deeply appreciated you and your inspiring work; it's been lovely to connect with you and to have you as a part of our Pub Family.

I've always been so happy to see something from you in the submissions queue and was honoured to publish your work. Your gentle spirit was a welcome part of my pubs and our Pub Family community.

You're right - there are no endings, only new beginnings...and although my friend's earthly life is coming to an end, I know he'll be returning to spirit where he can rejoin his beloved wife in a special new beginning, and I will have a different kind of beginning after I say goodbye to him for the last time.

Your sweet message brought tears to my eyes, Kris. I love you, too! You are a special lady and I'm so grateful for the time I've got to spend with you. Thank you for all you did to light up my pubs and my life. Hope all is well with you and that you're taking good care of yourself. 💝
