Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy. Rest in peace, Bill.

Bill,you were more than just a brother-in-law to me. You were part of me. Your kindness to others was a gift and at times you might not have realized it they really appreciated it. Many a times when we would go to places, you would always go ahead. Once again, with God's calling, you have gone ahead. I will miss you, but some day we will be back together Love, Don
