I know how deep the loss you feel. I know how cold the rain, for I have walked the road you walk and felt the pain!

I know how slow the hours are when someone loved is gone. I know how lonely loom the years when one's alone!

I know also that cynics say all tears are vain,that they cannot bring a loved one back or ease the pain!

But falling tears, o friend of mine, in mighty grief can wash the heart and soothe the soul and bring relief!

So let me stand here while you weep, quietly at your side, I'll feel the sting of every tear-----I, too, Have Cried!!

I have you all in my thoughts and prayers. I love you, Pat
