We thought of you today, but that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday and days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
All we have are memories and a picture in a frame.
Your memory is a keepsake from which we'll never part.
God has you in His arms, we have you in our hearts.
- Your Loving Family
