Today I was going through one of my photo albums and found the pictures your mom gave me after you left this world. I thought I had lost them or misplaced them. So thankful I found them hidden away. This is just one of the 2.. Your sweet face, your smile, your red hair, your kindness. My heart truly misses you. Thankful for our time,our talks, and our friendship we had in high school & as adults. God has you wrapped in His arms. Thankful for His love for all of us.. I will forever remember you my friend. We will see you again one day and for that I am truly grateful... God bless you and all your family Daniel. May their hearts always be comforted..
Love and miss you..

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

Janie,Jerry,
So sorry. Daniel was barely a month old when you guys sent Toni and I off to California. Before Sunday, that seemed like a long time ago. Now, not so long. Be well.
