A Limb has fallen from our Family Tree. ..
I keep hearing a voice that says "Grieve not for me, remember the best times, the laughter, the songs, the good life I lived while I was strong. Continue my heritage, until the day comes we're together again."

"I've "Gone Fishing" in the everlasting fishing hole
where I see clear crystal water and the sand is gold."
