And finally, Celia cherished these words from William Penn. “The Comfort of Friends”.

“They that love beyond the world, cannot be separated by it. Death cannot kill what never dies, nor can spirits ever be divided that love and live in the same Divine Principle; the root and record of their friendship. If absence be not death, neither is theirs. Death is but crossing the world, as friends do the seas; they live in one another still.”
