Barbara Ellen Baston-Beausoleil

 

To the grateful members of her family she is known as Mimi.

 

She danced through life with a beautiful smile, and taught us how to do this too.

 

She cooked us good food with the vegetables she grew in her garden.

 

She graced us with her vibrant presence, adorning our world with color and light and form.

 

She continues to embrace us, to inspire us, to encourage us and lift us up, but we miss her scolding us to help us do better.

 

We, the family members and friends she left behind, honor her memory and celebrate the many gifts she left to us.
