Hi Laura & Michael & families ~ so sorry to hear of the loss of Aunt Henri (as I called her). She was always fun and funny to be with. It's not easy during these difficult days but always remember the good times and the difficult days will vanish away. We pray that you lean on God because He answers prayer. May she rest in peace. God bless. Love, Bonnie & Cooper

To Ashley and family, I’m thinking of you during your time of sorrow. When Tomorrow Starts Without Me When tomorrow starts without me And I’m not here to see If the sun should rise and find your eyes Are filled with tears for me I wish so much you wouldn’t cry The way you did today While thinking of the many things We didn’t get to say I know how much you love me As much as I love you And each time you think of me I know you’ll miss me too But when tomorrow starts without me Please try to understand That an angel came and called my name And took me by the hand And said my place was ready In Heaven far above And that I’d have to leave behind All those I dearly love But when I walked through Heaven’s gate I felt so much at home When God looked down and smiled at me From His great golden throne He said this is eternity And all I promised you Today your life on earth is past But here it starts anew I promise no tomorrow For today will always last And since each day’s the same way There’s no longing for the past So when tomorrow starts without me Don’t think we’re far apart For every time you think of me I’m right here in your heart - Poem by David Romano
