Not sure what to say?

So very sorry for your loss. A poem for you related from an unknown source; "A loved one lost can grieve the heart, and make us yearn for tomorrow, when Jehovah will keep the promise he made of no pain, no death, no sorrow."

Ruth - I have lovely memories of sitting and chatting with your dad these last few years whenever I visited you. He had an easy laugh and was a wonderful storyteller. I will fondly remember as well the rides we took in his super cool car all those years ago and the way he always greeted me with a smile when he was out in your yard, he made your friends feel as if we were just the people he'd been waiting for! May your memories bring you comfort - much love to you always.
