Don't they teach you prudence there, or at least to think before speaking (typing?) <br /><br />Shame, Kathryn. I'm sorry for whatever it is in your life that compels you to lash out, but put a filter on it.<br /><br />and for those who are curious, my own curiosity led me to a five minute googling session that turned up Kathryn's Linkedin and facebook profiles, that's how I know about the law school.indiekittenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10887328853577087118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8995598592163959335.post-89965803595967241362011-01-14T19:57:27.577-08:002011-01-14T19:57:27.577-08:00It makes me sick that you've been put in a pos...It makes me sick that you've been put in a position where you felt you had to defend me, Paige.

I first and fore...My Dearest Yony and Friends,<br /> I first and foremost want to thank you for your unconditional love, your contagious spirit, and everlasting friendship. I am so truly grateful for these pictures as you respectfully sent to me first with my okay to post and had the willingness to put on your company web page. We are so truly honored to be remembered and have the privilege to be a part of your artistry. I am so proud of how you were able to take these photos while grieving yourself and reveal such beauty. I an so fortunate to be able to go back to these photos with my family and reflect on this "circle of life" that God has provided for us.<br /> Now, to you KAthryn, or however you spell your name and whomever else wants to criticize, I need to speak to you directly. And please know that I can post my telephone number for you at anytime so we can do so...My pain over the loss of my husband,for a lack of better words, indescribable. I wAke up eAch morning searching for him in our home as if he was still here. Not to mention my dear Kathryn I just lost my father five months ago. But it is like salt is poured into my wound of pain when I come across words such as yours. My advice to you, with your uneducated selfish martyring rambling. And honestly, my husband, would feel sorry for you. He would want to loft you up in prayer in remembrance of him and His Lord and Savior. That's the man he was and continues to be and would not allow someone to speak harshley to one of his friends. However, as I told Yony, through great work comes great critisism. So she will continue on with her beautiful artistry. My advice to you is to stay off of this blog, stay away from her work, and stay away from me. If you are compelled to write something more it should only be to request my phone number so this drama may stop. I want my husband to rest. I would like to rest. And I would like to admire<br />My friend's work without negative babble from you.<br /> Yony, thank you for your tolerance, your love, and your friendship.<br /> Sincerely, Tommy and PaigeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8995598592163959335.post-43894413549347417762011-01-14T15:50:23.102-08:002011-01-14T15:50:23.102-08:00Kathryn- you don't get it.

As someone else pointed out and said to me in so many words, I should also be appreciative of kathrynr's comment if only because it seems to have stirred the hearts and emotions of many. And photography, or art, rather, is nothing if not "felt."<br /><br />In the absence of love, there would have been no grief at this funeral.

I actually love the idea of removing the shroud over death and while mourning the loss of those we love, not denying them, or ourselves, our memories of their last days. I love all of this.<br />This is very, very special.

I've been coached by some to simply delete her words and forget about it, but I'm choosing to leave them.<br /><br />I will not apologize for my tribute or images because I believe that they are beautiful in their own right. Life is not always "nice" to look at, but everything about our existence is a gift and a miracle. And my faith leads me to believe that this man simply left this existence to go to a much, much better one... to me, this is reason to celebrate. To me, these images are glimpses of love and they tell a small part of his story and that of my dear friend.<br /><br />I could make blanket statements about you, kathrynr, based solely on your comment, but I choose not to because I don't know your whole story. I'm not going to jump down your throat and judge you because I have no right to do so.<br /><br />But I will say this: I'm not ashamed of my work, myself, or the kind of friend that I am. I know where I stand with God, myself, and my loved ones and that's really all that matters to me.Yony Lee Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10646748796794802908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8995598592163959335.post-26288801482131182272011-01-11T12:24:21.340-08:002011-01-11T12:24:21.340-08:00dear kathrynr,

I honestly there are experiences that happen that we don't necessarily embrace or remember because of the circumstances, and I think on most occasions they are things we do want memorialized or remembered. So I think this will hopefully be a lovely tribute and memorial for a great man on a day where he was celebrated(though a very sad day for those left behind, I am certain he would prefer the celebration)<br /><br />Thank you for sharing and my thoughts and prayers to your dear friend!!!Pink Velvet Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06712327164959928422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8995598592163959335.post-6283316932319508062011-01-07T12:34:58.219-08:002011-01-07T12:34:58.219-08:00from what little i know of paige, she seems to rad...from what little i know of paige, she seems to radiate a sincere joy, laughter and life. thought it was too short, thank god for the precious time they had together. i pray that she take comfort in the depth of that joy, laughter and life.<br /><br />so sorry for your loss.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08910336316221265134noreply@blogger.com
