Although you are gone, you will never be forgotten. Thinking of the Eskimo legend that says: Perhaps they are not stars in the sky but rather openings where our loved ones shine down to let us know they are happy. Will think of you always when I look up in the night sky as you shine with other loved ones that have gone before you. May you rest in eternal peace.
