Diane & family,

I was so shocked to hear of Brian's passing. I am so very sorry for your unexpected loss. I am still trying to accept that we will no longer see his smiling face with his loving chuckles. He will be missed greatly by all of us who knew him. My John has gained a new friend in heaven.
I send to you dear Diane, Tammy, Jody and Archer my most sincere sympathies.

Lovingly, Carmen

Death is a sad and tragic affair
Even when it is long anticipated
But no death is as hard on the living
As the unexpected death of a loved one

Death does not always come with warning
With time to say the sad farewells
Sometimes it comes, unannounced
With no time for even a brief goodbye

There are the saddest of times
When death takes one so dear to us
Without any warning, unexpected
And in our grief, we bid our sad farewell
