"I love you every day.
And now, I will miss you every day."
Let us share those words with Rachel tonight as she
and her family gather. It's a quote that comes to my
own mind pretty often these days.
Them Dad's... they're pretty important people in our
life. I know my Dad was, in my life. And I hope that
every one has that kind of Dad. You know, that guy
that was bigger than life, a hero to you.
To lose someone you love is never easy. I guess that's
why they call it love. Because that's a hole thats not going
to heal. Yes, in time we'll pick up the pieces and face life
again. But at the same time, they're with us always...a memory
just a thought away.
I wouldn't stop those memories even if I knew how. Death isn't
going to win. My Dad lives in my heart right now. A thousand
memories. Good memories.
Tonight, let us wish that for Rachel, her family. Especially the
mother.
A thousand good memories...and when you've looked at each one
of those, reach in and gather a thousand more.
May your heart be at peace.
Spook
