  4. Dian and family, I’m so sorry for your loss, my thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time of sorrow.

  5. Kathie Jo Farrell ' Smith says:

    I am so very sorry you had to go,
    we are all here with the question of the unknown.
    You love will always be here with us the memories we will keep
    even during the times we begin to sit and weep.
    This dose not seem real I can not understand,
    Why he had to take you by the hand,

    When the sunny skies turn from blue to gray,
    I can’t help but wonder just what you would say?

    I wonder if you know how many lives you have touched,
    Do you know that people here love you so much?

    Can you even know how many dreams you made come true,
    Or if you can hear the voices saying I love you?

    Do you know how many lives you have changed,
    And how many lives you completely rearranged?

    I wish I could have just one more year,
    Because I can’t picture the rest of my life without you here.

    Just another chance to drink and dance the night away,
    Instead of sitting here tears falling hard looking at sky’s of grey.

    Do you know you’ll be greatly missed by us all?
    Just one more time I want to hear you’re voice when I call.

    Just one more laugh, one more time to see you walk through the door
    Another smile, another story, another hug, once more…..

    Love you all very much,
    Kathie Jo
