"We thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
And the days before that, too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories,
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we'll never part.
God has you in His Keeping.
We have you in our Heart."

Sumer and Family, you...

Dear Sumer and Family, I am so sorry about Emilys passing. God saw her struggle and he heard her cry and wrapped his arms around her so she didnt have to cry anymore.. I do know the pain that you are going through and my words can never express the sorrow i feel for you and yours..May God Bless you and your family through this very tough time...

Yet, though I cannot see thee more,
'Tis still a comfort to have seen;
And though thy transient life is o'er,
'Tis sweet to think that thou hast been;
To think a soul so near divine,
Within a form so angel fair,
United to a heart like thine,
Has gladdened once our humble sphere.
John -- she is gone, but she was with you for a while. Remember the good things. "Tis better to have loved, than never to have loved at all."
God is...
