Ralph, Dan, Cathy, Lisa and Franky

and your families.



My deepest thoughts cannot explain how I felt when I heard Chris passed away. There are no words to express when a love one leaves and returns to God. My prays are with you.



I found this recently:



FOR THOSE I LOVE



Not that I'm gone, release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do. You must not tie yourself to me with tears. Be happy that we had these years together. I gave you my love. You can only guess how much you gave happiness to me. I thank you for the love you each have shown. But now it's time to travel on alone. So grieve ahwile for me, if you must. Then let your grief be comforted by trust. It's only for awhile that we must part. So save the memories within your heart. I won't be far away, for life goes on. So if you need me, call and i will come, through you can't see me or touch me. But I'll be there, near, and if you listen with you heart, you will feel all of my love with you, and then when you must come this way, I'll greet you with a smile and welcome, for all must find a home.
