Those we hold closest to our hearts never truly leave us.  They live on in the kindness they have shared and the love they brought into our lives. - Author Unknown

The memories we hold of our loved ones keep them forever in our hearts.

  2. Thank you Hilary. I don't think anyone really knows what happened as he was alone, but it was concluded to be a farming accident. He was 84.
