One day our Souls will meet again....



Heavenly Father

Heavenly Father hear my prayer, Guide our Father with tender care, Dear shepherd don't leave him alone, Love him in heaven, as we do at home




















































The Lord is my shepherd


The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul; He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies. Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. - - King David (c. 950 BC) Bible, Psalm 23s

Preperations.Planning.Closure


Oh Wow, Where do I begin?

Watching these Men,Husbands,Fathers,Sons & Brothers Plan there Fathers Funeral was an Enlightening experience to say the least.

Their Compassion,Care,Simplicity & Honor towards their Father,Mother & Eachother was the most Humbling experience to see as I watched quietly from the sidelines.

They were thoughtful in his honor, they were caring to eachothers feelings and watched for the signs of eachothers emotions & need for Love during this healing process {Sloan was the one they all watched out for}, they were respectful of the things in which they should return to there Mother {a Special trip made by Shannon & Rebecca}.

The respect they have for their Families & Eachother is an understatement.

They're ALL hard working and Loyal,

I thank you God & Gaurdians of Light & Love for placing me in this family.I have grown to love all of them and look forward to amazing years ahead.

I am Blessed!

Bitter Sweet.Family Reunion



Watching the little ones throughout this whole process & there support for eachother,for as young as they're was amazing to me. I don't know if I can even put it into words. So grown up,so full of emotion,each acting in accordance to who they are as human beings. I think it's times like these that children make the transition of someone passing just a little bit easier.



All in this home was full of love,throughout all the steps to our good~bye.From the I love you's,knowing Grandpa was reaching out to someone on the other side,the quiet tears,holding one until he didn't need to be held anymore,explanations in the sweetest form resinated fully with hearts as wide-open as they could ever be.



On a lighter note all Cousins enjoyed the time they had together.

Mia was a Blessing to All of them. Just what they needed during this time of transition. What was mourning slowly turned into the sounds of Laughter!


It felt a bit odd at times (to me) to be Laughing or Smiling at this point of Loss....But, I really had to go deep into myself and realize this is the important role that Children make in our Adult lives. They humble us, we Love like we've never loved before,we realize that they too have a Path, that they're our future & most importantly this is what Sherman {Grandpa} would want.



It was at this point {as well as Aubries visions} I had an overwhelming sense of peace that throu this amazing Journey we call the "Circle of Life" that we will all meet again. Our Eternal life... Eternal Souls... Grandpas Eternal Spirit that I will recognize anywhere.



Until we meet again "We Love You"!
