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.

Warm Summer Sun

Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.

The loss of someone so close is difficult to bear. We share your grief.

July 28, 2008

Al was one of-a-kind. I saw him strive to be the man his father and mother wanted him to be but -- there was never a chance of replacing that kid in him completely. He and I didn't "raise hell" together but, we were friends. He was a big bear with a big heart. I will remember Al.

We are going to miss you Al, and Roslindale will never be the same without you. We will miss your kind heart and loving kidding around... You always had a nice light smile, and a heartfelt wave as you drove by. You had a heart of gold, and your spirit will always be with us in loving ways. Our hearts and prayers go out to Shawn, Cathy and the family, and May you rest in peace. With love, Your neighbors, Ariel, Natanel, Paul and Nava Ervin
