In Their Words: “‘You’ll hear me in the sound of bells that ring…’ My dear friend was murdered nearly a decade ago. It caused great turmoil, and is still a painful mystery to behold. I dream of her often. In one dream I am driving a 1960 Yellow VW Van up to Gold Hill, Colorado, at the Continental Divide, and catch a glimpse of the Front Range. All those lights from ranches and little cities seemed to blend into the starry night sky. And then I sort of came to and was somewhat lucid and felt the presence of my friend hovering over me. I wanted to reach out to her. As she dissipated, I heard her say, ‘You’ll hear me in the sound of bells that ring.’ I could rest assured that we were still connected thought she is gone from our physical world.” — Ashleigh Flynn
