"Let not your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may also be. And you know the way where I am going." John 14

left with pain and anger inside,
why'd another friend have to die.
so angry that you had to leave,
but im told its how we grieve.
i'll always remember the day of your death, the day you took your final breath.
hearing him say you were no more,
i was shocked for i had seen you the night before. all i can do is pray, ever since God took you away. i swear i can hear you say, " death isnt the end,
we'll meet again my friend.
"I'll meet you at heavens gates,
where all the newcastle awaits."
for now i say goodbye to this Freak Of Nature, as he sits and waits with our creator.
forever loved and missed

The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me to bring the good news to the afflicted; He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to captives, and freedom to prisoners; to proclaim the favorable year of the LORD and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn, to grant those who mourn in Zion, giving them a garland instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the mantle of praise instead of a spirit of fainting. So they will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, the He may be glorified. Is.61

I picked this poem because like it says "life is fragile,
we must cherich our friends and family now, today,
this minute." I know of more than one of Andy's friends that is not taking this that well. I whish this poem could be read to all of them and encourage each and everyone of them to cherich those good memories they have of Andy. May God bless you and your family and his friends.
How We Survive
If we are fortunate,
we are given a warning. If not,
there is only the sudden horror,
the wrench of being torn apart;
of being reminded that nothing is
permanent, not even the ones we love,
the ones our lives revolve around.
Life is a fragile affair. We are all dancing
on the edge of a precipice, a dizzying
cliff so high we can't see the bottom.
One by one, we lose those we
love most into the dark ravine.
So we must cherish them without
reservation. Now. Today. This minute.
We will lose them or they will lose us
someday. This is certain. There is
no time for bickering. And their loss
will leave a great pit in our hearts;
a pit we struggle to avoid during
the day and fall into at night.
Some, unable to accept this loss, unable
to determine the worth of life without
them, jump into that black pit spiritually
or physically, hoping to find them there.
And some survive the shock, the denial,
the horror, the bargaining, the barren,
empty aching, the unanswered prayers,
the sleepless nights when their breath
is crushed under the weight of silence
and all that it means.
Somehow, some survive all that and,
like a flower opening after a storm,
they slowly begin to remember the one
they lost in a different way... The laughter,
the irrepressible spirit, the generous heart,
the way their smile made them feel,
the encouragement they gave
even as their own dreams were dying.
And in time, they fill the pit with other
memories the only memories that really
matter. We will still cry. We will always cry.
But with loving reflection more than hopeless
longing. And that is how we survive.
That is how the story should end.
That is how they would want it to be. –Mark Rickerby
