A season for angels

Do you believe in angels?

I do, because I've had the honor of meeting a rare few in my life. They took the form of regular people, with human weaknesses and frailties. Some people could never see beyond their human characteristics to witness the endless capacity for love, the courage, the conviction, the passion.

Rosemary Heflin was one of those angels. Today she has gone back to the heavens. We have lost an angel here on earth, but perhaps gained a guardian for all eternity.
