You always shook my hand,
always wanted your family to flourish,
always seemed content
knowing your kids and grand-kids
were living happy lives.
I didn't know you well,
but I know you cast a calming spell,
and without you here
the world is missing
something important

My words seem hollow, unhelpful, and unable to embody Shiro. His death is a blow his family does not deserve. He was loved, and loved, and welcomed me. I could feel the warmth in his home. I cry for his absence, I cry for Asialani's heart, I cry for Grandma Betty's love, I cry for JoAnne's loss, I cry for the family, I cry.
