GELLEIN: Kora Rae 1979 - 2007 It is with great sorrow that the Gellein family announces the passing of Kora. On April 10, 2007, her battle with drug addiction ended. Kora struggled for years, and endured many hardships during her short time here on earth. Her artistic talents brought joy to those close to her. This poem written by Kora many years ago, reflects her inner conflict with life. Death Personified by Kora Rae Gellein Kiss me softly, oh sweet death With cold blue lips of ice My body lay upon the snow To you a sacrifice Take me now, I beg of you Amid this bitter night Free me from the melancholy That hath become my life Efface me with your touch of stone Rid me of sorrow and plight Oh, I belong to you now, death No longer shall I fight Cover me in your blackened shroud Blind me from all I’ve seen So that I may rest eternally Unaware of what has been. “We will always love you, Kora” PERSONAL ALTERNATIVE FUNERAL SERVICES, Calgary ( 403) 216-5111 or 823-5151
