Default To Honor Andy Guest

From St. Augustine

Love never disappears, for death is a non-event.
I have merely retired to the room next door.
You and I are the same; what we were for each other, we still are.
Speak to me as you always have; do not use a different tone; do not be sad.
Continue to laugh at what made us laugh.
Smile and think of me.
Life means what it has always meant.
The link is not severed.
Why should I be out of your soul if I am out of your sight?
I will wait for you; I am not here, but just on the other side of this path.



You see, all is well.

I found much comfort in it myself. Thank you.

Here is his obituary. http://obits.pennlive.com/obituaries...&pid=130921805

Pray that I can withstand the viewing tomorrow evening. We expect about 200, and I'm not sure what to do. I've never had to do this before, and I'm nervous.

Beautiful words Pam - brought tears to my eyes and a smile to my heart.

You will get through the viewing tomorrow. You have done so much and you can do this.
My prayers are with you.

Pam, I want to thank you again for the beautiful and uplifting quote. I showed it to my wife and she asked me to save it for her.

You don't need to be nervous, you had the strength to be with Andy though his illness and will have the strength for the viewing. All of us here will be sending strength your way.
