"There are things that we
don't want to happen...
but have to accept,
Things we don't want to know...
but have to learn,
and PEOPLE we can't live without...
but have to let go..."

What moves through us is a silence,a quiet sadness,a longing for one more day,one more word,one more touch...
We may not understand why He left this earth that day,or why He left before we were ready to say good-bye...
But little by little,we begin to remember not just that He died,but that He lived.And that His life gave us memories too beautiful to forget...
My heart goes out to Your Family.

"No person is ever truly alone.
Those who live no more,
Whom we loved,
Echo still within our thoughts,
Our words,our hearts."-Richard Fife
A big part of my life is gone from this Earth,but NEVER from my heart.
With all my love and sympathy to all of You

My deepest sympathies to Diane, Bill, Cameron and Christopher. I remember meeting your father at a New Year's Eve day party in the Chicago apartment. What fun we had. Your family was extraordinary in the way that everyone was included. I am truly sorry for your loss, but there are many great memories to be had. LOL Joanna
