From Monika Datta

Darc.

Karmina and I have always held you on a pedestal. I hope you know that. The impact you had on our lives is immeasurable. You accepted and loved us for exactly who we were. Together we got to be ourselves and you unlocked a silly side of us that has become a permanent part of our personalities. You were always kind, never cruel and taught me the value of empathy.

Except for when we were running through the field behind the house and I got clothes lined by a barbed wire fence...but I couldn’t cry because you were laughing so hard you peed a little. Or I guess when you pantsed me in the gazebo at Loborough.

Karmina and I have always held you on a pedestal. And there you will stay.

I will see you in the stars. Love, your little sister always: Monika Datta

Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone. I hear you call my name, and it feels like home.
