BisJourney'sJustBegun Don't think of him as gone away­his journey has just begun life holds many facets the Earth is only one

Just think of him as resting from the sorrows and the tears in a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days and years

Think how he must be wishing that we could know today how nothing but our sadness can really pass away

And think of him as living In the hearts of those he touched For nothing loved is ever lost­And he was loved so much.

A Devoted Brother Thank you uncle Dennis

for al(1ou have done for our Father-Love Angie and Family
