With deepest sorrow a poem that has provided me some solace:

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

by Mary Elizabeth Frye - 1932

Dear Creegan Family,
The angels stood before the Gates of Heaven and offered this child to God. God then took this beautiful child into his arms for all eternity, .Everlasting hope that we will one day be together with our children and all who are saved through God's devine grace. I am sorry for the loss of your child, the light in your world; but with sadness, love turns into joy. Stay Anchored in your walk. It will be hard, but it will be with Jesus walking behind you to catch you, when you fall. Sincerely, Gwen Lineweaver (Hawthorne NJ)
