Quarantine 9


A 3-month verdict of solitary confinement for those living alone.
Today will be the funeral of a beloved choir member. She was the choir. It will be so different without her. And we can’t give her the farewell she so deserves. Probably she wouldn’t have minded. She was modest, did not like to make a fuss. I am glad she doesn’t have to live through this lock down. She lived alone, and wasn’t in very good health. We then depend on friends, on social contacts, on the church and for her and myself the church choir.  A number of the choir, her second family, is allowed to sing, unrobed. We will sit quite far from each other. But we will do our utmost to sing for her as well as we can with depleted numbers.
