My deepest sympathy out to The Family of Gregory Jacobs Sr. I did get a moment with Greg in his room at the nursing home about two months ago. I enjoyed talking with him. It was a special moment for me. He remembered me as little Prince.
R.I.P Greg. May God Bless The Family member!!!

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.
