Leon use to always tease me about traveling all the time. After I moved to Jacksonville, Leon told me that I was too far away from the family. Now, Leon has traveled far beyond the clouds to be with the Lord. May to Lord be with the family during this time of sorrow.

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.

I met Leon when I was a Teacher Assistant in the Amherst County School System. Leon was a most polite young man and even after he finished school remained the same. May the comfort of family and friends help you through this difficult time.
