Papa
You will always linger in my memories, when I am old enough to marry I'll be sure he is like you in more ways than one. I will cry because I miss you and cannot feel you and embrace you psychically but I will smile knowing you are strong again and happy with your brothers. My laughter will be filled with your energy and the many jokes you never got a chance to tell us. I love you deeply and stay sporty up there :)
Right sporty, right sporty!

To Aunt Francis and family,our prayers are with you. Uncle Kermit will be missed by many. He will always be remembered by me as an icon, of one who taught me how to shake someone's hand properly. He instructed me to give a firm grip while looking them directly in their eyes. God has received another great soldier in glory that has stood the battlefield of time. His reward is now great with God. God bless you all in Jesus name.

To The Gwathmey Family:
The sorrow of the faithful
is not that of permanent loss,
but the tender sense of sadness
that comes in saying good-bye for now
to someone we love.
May today's sorrow give way
to the peace and
comfort of God's love.
