Six years ago today a dear friend of mine past away in a car accident. His death was sudden and very final. One minute he was here and the next minute he was gone. When someone dies so suddenly you always feel like there are things that have been left unsaid. His death occurred around Easter and all over the funeral home there were Easter lilies. His casket spray was also done in lilies. I have always associated the smell of the lily to the realization that Andy would be no more in this world. Today I have been missing him so I decided to buy a lily. I have decided that I will no longer associate lilies with the finality of his death but use them to celebrate his life which is so worth celebrating. So today Andy I celebrate you with gladness that you are in Heaven but also with sadness because I miss you so!
If tears could build a stairway and thoughts a memory lane I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. No Farewell words were spoken. No time to say good-bye. You were gone before I knew it, and only God knows why.- My heart's still active in sadness and secret tears still flow. What it meant to lose you no one could ever know. But now I know you want us to mourn for you no more. To remember all the happy times, life still has much in store.- Since you'll never be forgotten I pledge to you today A hallowed place within my heart Is where you'll always stay. -God knows why, with chilling touch, Death gathers those we love so much, And what now seems so strange and dim, Will all be clear, when we meet Him. I Knew you for a moment but that moment will carry me through until I am able to see you again
