Just a few weeks ago I went down memory lane with a new friend and the names "Space", "Rick" and my cousin "Rick Bussie" came up. Mitzie sent me this guess book with a note and my heart sank. I am so sorry for your loss. Memories are everlasting...

Peace & Love

To the family of "Space": Here is a poem of comfort.

There will come a day
when your tears of sorrow
will softly flow into tears of remembrance...
and your heart will begin to heal itself...
and grieving will be interrupted by episodes of joy...
and you will hear the whisper of hope.
There will come a day
when you will welcome the tears of remembrance...
as a sunshower of the soul...
a turning of the tide...
a promise of peace.
There will come a day when you will...
risk loving...
go on believing...
and treasure the tears of remembering.

To the Nichols Family

You have my deepest condolences. I grew up with Duane in Seat Pleasant and Fairmont Heights area. My family who's the Staggs also grew up with the Nichols and Spriggs family. We just layed to rest our love one Timothy Staggs so I know what the family is going through right about now. Remember there is no sorrow that Heaven can not heal. Weeping may endureth for a night but Joy cometh in the morning. Peace and Love to the family.
