Joanna, Cathy and family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of sorrow. Time will help to heal the pain, and just remember all the wonderful times you shared. He is no longer suffering and in pain. He is now with his heavenly father, where there is no pain or suffering. If I can help in any way just let me know.
love

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.

Bumpsy was a good man with a big heart. I would always challenge myself to get to his lighter side by making him smile or getting him to laugh. I appreciate the contributions he made to Colortree in the 12 years of dedicated service. My God be with you in this time of sorrow.
