Your memory will always remain in my heart though you & I had to suddenly part. We shared a TRUSTING bond that could never be broken. I thank God for my angel Edgar who is now up above & who will always watch over the ones he LOVED. Time has now come for my Bop to take a rest we all LOVED you but God LOVED you best.
