mean a great deal to my family and me
yesterday we celebrated the life of another
who has left our world
who made his mark
and was ready to journey forth to another place
when i am in these moments
i am always left with a feeling...a thought
~how do you sum up ones life in a matter of minutes~
its impossible
years and years have gone by
memories and moments
trials and tribulations
laughter
joy
so much to remember
but
such little time to reflect
after the service
we went to visit
grandpa
eyes filled with tears
hearts aching
wishing one was still here
but to watch our wee littlest one
walk up and find his grandpa
without a fear
just wanting to touch him
filled our hearts
wiped away the saddness
and grief
the emptyness
gone
"grandpa's right here"

You've brought tears to my eyes. I remember how death was hidden from me when I was young. I was never allowed to say good-bye.

Tear jerker! I never got to know my grandparents. They died long before I was born. Mom had me at a late age. It had its benefits but also its downside. Stunning pictures <3 Blessings to you and yours
You have a beautiful blog and are an amazing writer.
Thank you for sharing.
Warm wishes, Tonya
You have my heartfelt sympathy for the loss of your loved one.
The photo of your wee little one at the wall of remembrance filled my heart and eyes with tears.
We remember the best of times and the best of the person who has gone on before us.
I believe it is true, what we have done for others will last.
Love is a gift, a gift given to others , it will last.
Blessings.

Had to reach for a tissue when you mentioned your little one's reaction. My heart goes out to you and your family. xoxo
souls are not lost. The departed live on in our hearts for as long as we need them. they gladly come back to speak to us whenever we need them, you just have to listen. Peace to you all.

Warmest wishes and blessings to you. I dreamt about my Grandmother the other night too. I was watching her on TV and crying because I missed her. We keep them here in our hearts forever though. Lots of happy memories to treasure.
