"... I realize we are all nearing the end of our journey here, but it is still sad and hard to see it come to those we know and love. I lost my brother yesterday after having been hospitalized for over four months. I would like to share something from author, Mary Frye":
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am in the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush of
beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the star-shine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
I am with those I love,
I am with Him in Heaven above.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die.
I know what it's like to lose a sibling, and I also know that thoughts and prayers from friends and loved ones are a comfort after such a loss. Please join me in sending your condolences and love to Peggy. May her brother Zane rest in peace.
Peace be with you all,
Marilyn
I'm so sorry, Peggy, about your brother's death. I know how dearly you will miss him until you see him again some day.
ReplyDeleteMy prayer for you and your family is God's surrounding love and comfort.
