Dearest Toby, dearest boys...
The truth is that none of us are truly ready to part with those we love.
The hardest lesson that life teaches each of us is that we are all passing through this earth and that death is a threshold that we will all have to cross.
It is up to each of us to try to fill the time that has been given to us with meaning.
That's exactly what Christine did.
In her life Christine brought light, smiles, brilliant intelligence, irony, music, wisdom, love.
She made friends in every part of the world and cared in every way and to the end for the people she loved.
He educated his children and those of others with respect and tolerance.
She was an example for everyone in pain and illness, which never prevailed over her incredible strength of mind.
She was a guide and a beacon to all who had the fortune, privilege and honor of knowing her.
Never before have I been so certain that she is finally free to fly across the universe and be a dazzling light, no longer limited by space and time.
Thank you Tobias for holding her hand tonight and through everything.
One hot summer many years ago, in a small kiosk in Rimini, I was absorbed in my thoughts.
I looked up suddenly and my eyes saw an angel smiling at me.
She stood before me silently, waiting for me to notice her.
Her very blonde hair reflected the light of the morning sun and it seemed that it was her figure that was emitting that light.
This is the oldest memory of Christine I have and it is beautiful.
