Dear Connie

Dear Connie

We’re sorry for your loss and broken heart
There are no words to soften such a blow
This life can be hard and tear us apart
We are here for you, I thought you should know

You have our prayers and our thoughts as well
We will share with you, your burden and pains
We now mourn with you as our tears will tell
His memory shines even when it rains

Each night before bed, keep one thing in mind
Memories will live with every breath 
Keep them in your heart and easy to find
He will be remembered long after death

May your heart find peace from the Lord above
We are the poets who send you our love

I am so sorry that I was not following close enough to know about this truly tragic loss before I read about it last night. This is a beautiful poetic prayer and tribute. I can truly say amen, we too are now praying. My heart hurts for your sweet family and your mother's heart Connie.

This is such a touching piece Mark and it is of some comfort to Connie that her son Robby will live on through the lives of the people he has saved with organ donation. hugs Jan xx
