I will miss all the good times we had.



Buddy my dear friend at the Evergreens. I will miss all your help cleaning the snow off the cars and chatting about worldly events. It was an honor to get to know you. I would like to leave these words of comfort for your family......WE ARE NEVER ALONE - We may never come to understand why life is filled with such sorrow. Yet, we are reminded of this by the heart felt loss of a loved one. We sometimes feel alone in our despair. - Then there are times that we marvel at the tulip pushing its way through the semi-frozen ground. We listen to the gurgling of the water as it makes its way past the boulders in the brook. It's a sound that fills our soul like no other. We are left breathless at the sight of the golden orange sunset that casts its light as if it came straight from heaven. - It's only in those moments do we truly realize that we are not alone. God shows us a new beginning as with the tulip, He whispers in our ear through the gurgling of the water in the brook, and He assures us of a heavenly place by the glorious sunset He brings. - We don't know why there is such sorrow in life, just as we can't explain the happiness that life brings, but know this, We Are Never Alone by KCM. Blessings to you and your family my dear friend, much love Ken & JoAnn Morse
