“The day that you left, our hearts broke, we knew that you were in pain and suffering. When we look up at the gleaming stars, we know that you are there. When we see a cardinal, we know you are near. Our hearts are aching because we can’t have you here, but we know you are present with the lord hand in hand beside you. When raindrops fell from the sky, the day you left me, an angel cried. Remember, you are always in our hearts.”
