My Son, I Miss You So

Andrew John Ryken 7/26/1980 - 6/08/2014 We don't go on without you Andy. You are in every thought, every decision, every heartbeat. You are the inspiration to live this life to the fullest, it's the only way I can think of to honor you, your time here on Earth. It's the way I know that you would want it to be and with this in mind I can feel some measure of peace. All of our moments, days and years we had together will be wrapped up in all of those to come. I cherish and hold dear every day we had and we've had so many. For this I'm so very grateful. You were everything real and beautiful and sacred as a son can be in his mothers eyes. And you tought me the true meaning of love. You were my first love and that love knew no boundries. I will love you until the day I die and every second after

A gorgeous tribute to Andy; so well done, Rebecca. I feel that he has read this from his heaven seat.
