Amen

I often wonder should we shed a tear,
or should our hearts just sing.
For when a loved one passes on,
another angel has their wings.

Its okay to do both shed a tear and to let our heart sing when a love one passes. Sure we miss them but we can be happy that they are in a better place.

That’s a hard one to answer brother John, should one cry when a loved one’s gone, or sing in our hearts to send them on… Sis Belle

It sure is sister Beryl,I still shed tears for Ann. The only thing I find comfort from, is knowing our dear departed ones are no longer suffering.
