I miss you so much, but we talked about this episode, you told me to be strong and that life goes on. Now that this day has come, my heart aches so- ooo much, unable to sleep because I am remembering everything we talked about and the things we did. God knew best and he gave you rest. I miss you so much but I know that we will meet again in the after life. Love you forever your wife.

Dont Cry For Me (Poem)

Don't cry for me now I have died, for I'm still here I'm by your side,
My body's gone but my soul's is here, please don't shed another tear,
I am still here I'm all around, only my body lies in the ground.
I am the snowflake that kisses your nose,
I am the frost, that nips your toes.
I am the sun ,bringing you light,
I am the star, shining so bright.
I am the rain, refreshing the earth,
I am the laughter, I am the mirth.
I am the bird, up in the sky,
I am the cloud, that's drifting by.
I am the thoughts, inside your head,
While I'm still there, I can't be dead.

Rest in Peace Frog.
