Dear Karen and Rick and other family members,I am so sorry about your dad. He was always a great Uncle to me and will live on in my heart forever. He is happy now though , because he is with your mom again, there is nothing he wanted more. Love Gloria

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.

He was something else, but that is what makes this so hard. But think of all the good memories that you have of him.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you, and rest of your family at this very difficult time. Wish, I could be there for you.
