Remembering

Grief clings to you

He was special - one of the first to shape your view of the world

He was there, a constant presence

Now we cry

And we celebrate his life...his contributions to ours

It is painful

Yet in each moment, we find comfort in memories...

...in the simple touch, smile and warmth of the extended family

and God's love engulfs us

cleanses us

soothes us

and we remember, that in everything, we are truly blessed
