My mom had assigned to me the difficult task of creating a write-up to place in the paper on the 14th, to memorialize the 1 year mark of my sister's passing. I tried and tried to create something but the words just wouldn't flow. So I asked for some expert assistance from my brother (who is an amazing writer even if he doesn't think so). Now I am so happy that my words wouldn't come. Read this and you'll see why. Hope you don't mind Joey, I just had to share.
Though you are gone, you live on...
You live on in pictures found at the bottom of a drawer.
Each one a treasure - worth a fortune in memories.
You live on in the laughter of your friends and your family,
as we swap our stories and share small pieces of you.
And you live on in our tears, as we weep in your honor.
Our tears mourn your passing.
Our tears celebrate your life.
Yes, you are gone, and yet you live on:
In our hearts...
In our minds...
Forever.
We miss you Meredith.
I couldn't have expressed what's in my heart any more perfectly. Thank you Joey!
