Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather, openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.

I will have an empty spot in my Life now that you are gone. I have no regrets that I spent as much time with you as I could. I will miss you so much and as I said to you, Thank You for everything you ever did for me. I know how much you missed mama and we all know you were ready to be with her again. Nothing I could ever do or say would be enough to show you the love in my heart for the both of you. You were the example of what love and being a good man to your family was about. You were Always a hard worker and gave anything you had if someone needed... You thought of others before yourself. I have many memories to hold onto and can't wait til I get to see the both of you again Love you Always Don't worry we will take care of everything else....
