My thoughts are with you at this so very sad time..................x

Re: my lovely boy has gone

This prayer may be of comfort to you my love during this ubelievable time.
It was written by a local man.

You can shed tears that he is gone

Or you can smile because he has lived

You can close your eyes and pray that he will come back

Or you can open your eyes and see all that he has left

Your heart can be empty because you can't see him

Or you can be full of the love that you shared


You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday

Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday


You can remember him and only that he is gone

Or you can cherish his memory and let it live on


You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back

Or you can do what he would want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
