Eulogy

Your shores were touched by timeless sea, your mortal life mere shifting sand to be built, eroded, then set free, when led by our Lord’s eternal hand. Each day as the sun does make it’s rise, your eternity shall steal my mind. In the morns dark clouds that shield my eyes, I pray at last true peace you find.

This is a touching and beautiful eulogy. It is difficult to keep losing friends as we age. My condolences dear friend. Blessings, Connie

Hello Jan … thanks once again Jan. Every now and then I attempt to cleanse the mind of humour. Sorry to read that you must have lost 3 friends/family - losing a dear friend inspired me to write eulogy - Lindsay
