Deepest sympathy to you Genie and David's family on his passing. Although I only got to meet David and his family for the first time this past January at Anne's, I am so glad I finally had that oppotunity, he was a corker! I got to put a face to the names I have heard over and over through out the years. May angels wrap their wings around you all for comfort in this time of loss and need.

Dear Helene, Mark and Carrie, Paul, Phil, and Genie,

My heart breaks for you.

As a baby is born, he enters the world with strong lungs, making it known that he is not pleased leaving behind the safety of the only world he once knew; the safety of his mother's womb. As he is placed in the arms of his parents he is peaceful yet again and is surrounded by Love.

So too the journey from this life to the next. As David has entered his eternal home he is embraced by the Love of our Heavenly Father. His lungs are clear and his Love is strong. He is peaceful, full of Love and eternal Light because he is surrounded by the Love of Jesus Christ.

Please know that I love you all and that your husband/father/brother will never ever leave you. Timmy joins me with our prayers.

Dear Helene,
We are thinking of you and your boys and wishing you all the acceptance and peace that only time can bring. Although this is a sad time for all of us left behind, I am sure David is elated to be reunited with Tim, Ben, Elisa and Michelle! As David makes his final journey home, we can remember his years here with all of us and the influence he has had on all of our lives.
Much love,
