I cannot begin to tell you, I, understand your lost because I have not experience grief of the lost of my dad or a husband, but I want you to know that, I feel the pain of my uncle but yet through it all we can rejoice in knowing that a TRUE SOLDIER has fought a good fight, he has finished, he kept the faith,2 Timothy 4:7. In the midst of sorrow, may you all draw strength from knowing that others are in this with you, and as you hurt, so do we, whatever challenges you face, Trust God to honor your faith in him, may you feel His love and ours around you,may the peace God has promise be with you always.I wasn't able to celebrate with you all in the homegoing service my heart and my prayers were definately with you all. May God continue to bless

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.

Kristin, I too, know the sorrow of loosing a father. Your love and memories will last your lifetime and will comfort you when you need him. I like to think that Dad is still close and watching over me. Take comfort in knowing he'll never have any more pain or discomfort. He is truly in a better place.
