Lavishly devoted: a floral tribute to Rona Besterman
Melissa Cushman
When she loved you, she loved you fiercely.
She carefully guarded her tender heart, but once you became part of her tribe, Rona wore it proudly on her sleeve.
She possessed a kind of grace and gentleness that made your nerves soften. Rona was that kind-hearted, sweet women you didn’t mind sharing a car ride with, a coffee, or an office. She knew how to read the subtleties of the room. She understood when it was time for silence, or when a warm conversation was needed.
A love for nature, travel, culture and story. Deeply sensitive, she felt what you felt.
She would fight for you, listen to you, accept you no matter what.
Her internal strength carried her through much heartache, illness, and loss. Until the end, she persevered with steadfast, eternally devoted love.
