I worked with Shawna a few years back and recently found each other on Facebook. We chatted almost every day and I will miss her and pray for her family.

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.

Remember

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

Warm Summer Sun

Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

Shawna was my best friend and I loved her very much! She was always there for me...no matter what! I am going to miss her beautiful smile, her nutty and fun loving personality and our time with each other. This world and my life are going to be a much lonelier place without her. I LOVE YOU MY DEAR FRIEND!!!!!
