“”Someone so special, can never be forgotten. It will be the little things that you will remember, the quiet moments, the smiles, the laughter. And although it’s hard right now, it will be the memories of these little things that help to push away the pain and bring the smiles back again.””
“”She Is Not Gone” Ease your grief, she is not gone, for in your heart she lingers on. Her simile, her laugh, her special way, Will confort you from day to day. You’ll feel her presence in the breeze That dances gently through the trees. And it’s her face that you shall see When you’re in need of company. At any time you can recall, The love you shared… you saved it all. And in time, more than anything, You’ll find peace in remembering.”
