May God hold you in His loving arms and may your body rest on angels wings until you are ready to soar through the skies above us. Soaring and watching out for all that you knew and loved and even the strangers you pass. Everyone was a friend to you...and you to them. Your smile and laughter was infectious and your love will carry on in all of us that knew and loved you. We are all a little bit stronger to live this life watching you fight that fight with a smile on your face and love in your heart.
Until we meet again Gir'friend!
Love You,
Lori
