A limb has fallen from our family tree. But we keep hearing a voice that says, “Grieve not for me. Remember the best times, and the laughter, remember the good life I lived while I was strong. Continue my heritage, I’m counting on you. My mind is at ease…my soul is at rest. Remembering it all, I was truly blessed. Continue the traditions, no matter how small. I will miss you dearly, so keep up your chin, until the day comes when we’re together again.”
