    It is so hard to think that this is where we are now. My memories are of much happier times. Back when we were younger and so full of life. It was like we couldn't even imagine getting older and surely not death. But God does indeed have a perfect plan for each one of us. All we have to do is accept him and life will be eternal. I pray that your family is surrounded by God's infinite love and mercy in this time of grief.
