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.

Dear Family of Eric, I am a staff member at Methodist where I meet Eric through the weeks of his stay. I came to know him and became very attached to him, I feel your loss and want you to know that Eric is home now where he will be free of pain and will be able to know love with no hurt and God will see to it that he will still know that we all loved him and will miss him and will see him again in time. May God give you strength to make it though this time of sorrow may God bless you all.
