Rip

Today we mourn, 
                                    with friends at our side.
                                      We shall say farewell, 
                                     with the changing tide.

                                        Your work is done, 
                                     you’ve given your best.
                                    May your soul find peace; 
                                        with your final rest.

                                        You will be missed 
                                        and forever adored.
                                      Your family and friends 
                                          are in full accord.

                                      We pray for your family
                                         to find their peace.
                                     We’re here for you Krish, 
                                    may your pain soon cease.

Dear Mark I am overwhelmed by your gesture! Your words are so precise and reach my soul! This is a great tribute to my mother who has been a very important person in our lives. Wise, witty and compassionate she was the driving force in the family. I have fave this so I can read it often! It will also remain framed in a part of my house next to mum’s photo. God bless you for your thoughtful gesture! Krish

Hello Mark Koplin, I just go onto the site. Is Krish alright? His mother will always be in his heart and his guardian angel. I hope he reads all of our comments. Enjoy your day my friend.

Hello Krish, I am sorry for your loss. I just found out about your loss. She must have been very sick. She is no longer in pain now. Come back when you feel stronger. Blessings my friend.

Hi Mark, What a kind and thoughtful poem to pen for Krish. I'm sure he will appreciate such a kind gesture.Many have lost loved ones in these difficult times. He was fortunate to have his mother for many years; she lives in on in his memories.May he find comfort with time-Alexis

In Minnesota there is no funeral if you’re cremated

I know many of us can relate to how Krish is feeling right now. Time will ease the pain he's feeling at the moment but his loss will always be with him. But his mother's memory will always be in his heart. Beautiful write Mark. Tom
