We are so sorry of your loss. Having to part with a loved one so young and full of life is very difficult I know. Time will let you live on but the pain that you feel will never go away. When you love someone so much you will let them live on not only in your memmory but in your every day life as if they have gone away for awhile knowing you will see them again. - Posted by: Bob,Julie Cowie & Family (Friend) on: Oct 04, 2013
