'UP high in the Sky'
STEFANO - ' Stef ' -
'In Thoughts'
.....We received this week the sad news that Stefano - STEF- died in a traffic-accident (in Holland). He is a seventeen year old (youngh) boy...We heard this sad news by my Dutch/Can. Aunt T. Stef is the 17 year old teeneager son of my Cousin Els. He was instantly killed by a pickup truck right after school while crossing the street. The truck was going full speed. His mom Els , was waiting at home with the tea as is their custom.
Instead she got a call from the police. They were taken by a police car to the Hospital, they were in shock, we (family) all still are!" Els could not comprehend that her son Stef was gone. She was making coffee for him, and realized that she did not have to pour a cup for him (he just loved her coffee!). The police gave her a bag of his clothes all cut up in pieces by the paramedics, she had not been able to look at them. Neither had she been in his room yet.
The younger sister of Stef, the nine year old Kimberly, cried out very expressively (the only one who showed emotion!): "But Mommy now I only have two brothers left and it will take a hundred years before I see him again, that takes too long!" When she went to bed she took a picture of Stef with her, on which she wrote, "I love you and I miss you!"
My cousin Els is starting with arrangements for the funeral. Nobody is an expert in those things, especially when it happens so suddenly.
Yesterday you were still feeling the wind,
In between , travelling to....
Heaven and earth....
Today you are resting,
You are..
Somewhere there,
'UP, high in the sky'
Hopefully in peace ..
Your light is shining forever,
You will stay in our hearts,
We love you,
Goodbye Stef.

I just wrote in my last (wednesday) post "Just enjoy every day in your life as it is your last minute" , not knowing that Stef died so suddenly. "Thats how life is"... you might think or say.... No, this is too sad, he couldn't say "goodbye", nor could we his family...
When you are much older or sick, you might expect to die on the 'one or another day', you can prepare for what is coming. Saying 'goodbye' , before you go " UP High in the sky".
