As you meet again with those you love on the other side, all of your pain and worries no more, may those who remain here missing and loving you carry on the precious memories you were always so good at sharing with us. I loved the way you carried the rolodex of photos of all of your loved ones; so beaming with pride and doting on every one! Showing how to love them all, may that reign on in all of us and be a lesson we may all learn to carry on; loving each other, despite whatever adversities may come. Love and blessings to all who miss and love you, and may peace fill your hearts even if they now feel broken right now.
