I know there are a few of sharing anniversaries in the next few days and I just wanted to let you know that I am holding you all close to my heart and hope that our united strength will get us all through these dreadful times. I'm missing my Angel so very much and am having problems with some memories I usually don't like to deal with. I'm sure I'm not the only one - so how about a group hug ((((((((((((((((((((((HUGZZZZZZZ)))))))))))))))))))
love always Gail x

Surrounding You Are Angels~

They are there to guide your path.
If weakness overcomes you,
they'll give you strength, if you will ask.
They are your protection
when life seems too hard to bear.
And though you feel alone at times,
the angels ... they are there.

Their faces may be hidden
and their voices you might not hear,
but they are ALWAYS with you,
through your laughter or your tears.

They'll walk along beside you.
They'll guide your steps along the way.
They'll comfort you and hold you.
Protect you night and day.

They'll hold to your hand tightly.
They'll not ever let it go,
and they'll gently lead you forward,
taking each step very slow.

For even as you slumber,
they watch closely over you.
They are there beside you
in each and every thing you do.

When life is overwhelming,
and your spirit has grown tired,
know they'll be there for you,
to uplift and to inspire.

And when you're torn and lonely,
and you see no hope ahead,
know that they will nourish you.
Your spirit will be fed.

And if there comes a time in life
that your heart has been broken,
hear the words, "I'm here, my child,"
and know your angel has spoken.

For even in the darkest hour,
when all of hope seems gone,
they'll give you strength to live your life,
And desire to go on.

And if your faith in Heaven,
should ever fade away,
they'll help renew your spirit,
and help you find your way.

They'll help you in your times in need.
They'll wipe away your tears.
They'll show to you compassion.
They'll calm your raging fears.

They'll hold your hand and direct you,
should you fall from your path.
They'll lift you up to steady you.
All you need to do is ask.

For you see, the Father sent them,
because to Him, you mean so much.
He sent them "just for you," my friend,
And your life, they will touch.

Katherine - it is not crazy to envy those who go before us - I know it may sound strange to other people but we do know where you are coming from.
There is no selfishness in your dread of the funeral - they bring back far too many memories of our own losses. But your sister will appreciate your support and will need your strength on Wednesday. I know at times we feel we have no more strength to offer but somehow you will find it I am sure.
Will keep you close in prayer and send you love and hugs always

Karen - what a wonderful thing that Brad's friends came to be with you yesterday. It helps knowing that others are thinking of our Angels and keeping them and US in their hearts. How I wish we could blot out all these occasions and milestones - they are so painful and only bring back the loss even more poignantly. Sending you many hugs my love xx

(((((((((((Karen))))))))) you are so blessed to have so much support for you and your son. During special occasions like these let me know hon and I will say extra prayers for you for strength and grace.
Comment by Ann Edmondson on June 9, 2009 at 9:23am
(((((((((Katherine))))))))))) lots of hugs dear, expecially while you are there for your sister. Don't feel bad because you are not selfish. All of us feel that way at some point in time. If they say otherwise they are in denial. I will pray for you and your family for strength. I know what you feel -- I lost my brother 8 years ago and he was just 35.

Last evening our Brad should have graduated high school - Many of his friends came here / cemetery - before & after the graduation - they brought his cap, gown & flowers - that had laid on his chair during the grad. ceremony. - My eyes are so swollen & hurt so bad today - but, of course don't even compare to the pain in my heart, - I am with you Katherine- a bit jealous of your brother in law. ((( HUGS ))) - Karen
