Chase's family and friends thank you profoundly for helping to keep his memory alive in our hearts and our minds.
Laurie and I were so moved today by the beautiful ceremony celebrating the wonderful life and spirit of Chase. We knew him well enough to be touched by his special aura. The day has been poignant and maybe it has brought some sense of closure; not in our memories or our sense of loss, but maybe in our hearts this ceremony will serve as the final farewell between the temporal and the spiritual. Today reassures us that his soul is truly with the Lord. Also, I was moved today by something unexpected and I dare say supernatural. As the paddlers congregated in the shallows to paddle out, two seals appeared and seemed to frolic nearby. It immediately seemed special and symbolic to me. I remembered that there is old Gaelic folklore about humans that take the form of a seal, termed a "selkie". When we got home I went online to do some research. Like all folk lore there seems to be different iterations of the myth, depending on the location of origin. Wikipedia states that according to Welsh folklore, selkies are humans who "have returned to the sea.".... It 's just a reminder that Chase was with us today and he was happy and he frolicked..and he didn't come alone! — Kent Adamson ![]() ![]() ![]() |
