His journey's just begun
Life holds so many facets
This earth is only one
Just think of him as resting
From the pain and the tears
In a place of warmth and comfort
Where there are no days and years
Think how he must be wishing
That we could know, today
Now nothing but our sadness
Can really pass away
And think of him as living
In the hearts of those he touched
For nothing loved is ever lost
And he is loved so very much...


To Rita and Mandy, you're in our thoughts and prayers.
