I'm am now over twice the age I was when we lost you It's funny to think that the time I have had without you in my life is greater than the time I had you in it But your love and the effect you had on me will last my whole life.  Time moves quicker than we would like, and memories become hazy Smells, sights, photos, clothes remind us most vividly of the past Remaining family with their stories and anecdotes from you and your life keep alive the essence of you, and remind us not to be sad that you are gone but to be happy that we all managed to meet you and have you in our lives, even if short lived.
