Special prayers for comfort for your family. I'm so sorry for your loss.
AWAY
I cannot say, and I will not say
That he is dead–. He is just away!
With a cheery smile, and a wave of the hand
He has wandered into an unknown land,
And left us dreaming how very fair
It needs must be, since he lingers there.
And you– O you, who the wildest yearn
For the old-time step and the glad return–,
Think of him faring on, as dear
In the love of There as the love of Here;
And loyal still, as he gave the blows
Of his warrior-strength to his country's foes–.
Mild and gentle, as he was brave–,
When the sweetest love of his life he gave
To simple things–: Where the violets grew
Blue as the eyes they were likened to,
The touches of his hands have strayed
As reverently as his lips have prayed:
When the little brown thrush that harshly chirred
Was dear to him as the mocking-bird;
And he pitied as much as a man in pain
A writhing honey-bee wet with rain–.
Think of him still as the same, I say:
He is not dead– he is just away!
-James Whitcomb Riley
Sabrina's ashes are with Mommy now. I guess her daddy (with true viking lineage did not want her in the ground) said it was ok to lay her to rest. I guess when she passed, my mother-in-law offered a mosoleum. I guess she is going to give the ashes to her aunt and uncle to take care of it. We shall see how this progresses.
Happy Birthday, in Heaven, Sweet Sabrina!
Your twin brother, DJ, flew in from California with your daddy,
to see your mommy for a few weeks.
Papa and mommy drove to the air port to pick them up
while your new half-sister, Aurora Jane stayed with cousin Tim and Amanda.
Grammy is going to visit DJ today to give him the promised "McDonald Toys"
if he would go to bed and get some sleep.
Your ashes are still safe with grammy, along with the ceramic angel that sits on top
protecting your ashes, while you soar in heaven.
Happy sweet 5 years "Widdle Waddy"
