Kubler-Ross' groundbreaking work on death and dying helped people worldwide learn how to cope, not only with death, but with every type of loss.
Besides being a physician and author, she was a humanitarian who worked with AIDS babies and the International Voluntary Service for peace.
She will be remembered and missed by a grateful world.

A few of her quotes:
Quote:
People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.
Should you shield the canyons from the windstorms, you would never see the beauty of their carvings.
The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassions, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen. |
