I thought about you yesterday and days before that too,
I think of you in silence I often speak your name
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame
Your memory is my keepsake with which I’ll never part
God has you in His keeping I have you in my heart.

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

Dearest Karen & Family,
No matter how good a person may be with words, at a time like this no words are sufficient to take away the hurt and the pain. But there is a God who knows it all. Look to Him becasue He can take you through. When all of the family and friends are gone and you are left with nothing but memories, concentrate on the fact that GOd promised to never leave or forsake you and then allow Him to comfort you. He can give you a peace that will surpass all understanding if you just keep your mind stayed on Him. Thats a promise. You will remain in my thoughts and prayers. I am but a phone call away. Most sincerely...
