"Those we love don't go away. They walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near. Still loved, still missed and very dear. Death leaves a flesh heartache no one can heal, but love and joy leaves a memory of presence....NO ONE can steal."
- Praying for continued covering for you and your family.

Blessings, Mrs. M. George.
