"The most beautiful people we have ever known, are those who have known defeat, known suffering, 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 compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen." Elisabeth Kubler-Ross Arrangements are with Mohave Memorial Lake Havasu Mortuary, Lake Havasu City, Arizona.
