Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

The last time I visited Mt. Holly was in early June of this year. My sister Carol and I stopped in to see the Guldens and I am so very glad that we did. I have known the Guldens my entire life and will remember George with fond memories of first televisions and Halloween parades. My sympathy goes out to his family. I know he will be missed.
