My Dearest Sister
It took this long for me to sign this guest book. I thought I would give myself some time, however I'm still having a very hard time doing this, as I speak the tears are flowing everywhere. I know you are in a better place without any sickness , worries or pain but it does not take away the pain of missing my running partner. I will forever love and miss you.
Your loving Sister

To the family of Julia Heyward. May the precious memories of loved one be a comfort to you now, and may it help to know that many thoughts are with you in your sorrow. Mama Annette here's a poem I would like to share with you.
The Coming Spring
Away, away, and so I fly
It seems a shame I had to die
To know this freedom, joy and peace
It still seems sad my life must cease
But time holds powers o’er these things
To say what lives cold winter brings
It’s hard to watch the melting snow
That joins the tears and still they flow
Within this water there is life
Reminders of our joy and strife
The good, the bad, and in between
What a wonderful life we both have seen
As winter fades and days grow longer
The path will fade and you’ll grow stronger
For spring is not so far away
For us to meet another day
