My dad's note

A Poem of Loss…

Just for a moment we held in our hands a gift so precious, so rare.
Just for a moment we beheld with our eyes her face so lovely, so fair.
Just for a moment her sensitive touch; just for a moment Her lyrical songs;
Just for a moment she really was here. With us, where she belongs.

Just for a moment we heard with our ears her laughter thrilling the air.
The echoes are lingering still; They always will.

Now, just for a moment she lives in our hearts cherished with tenderest care.
For as long as we live, for as long as we love, she will always be there.


I received this poem from a letter called the Lifeline that my daughter kaylees church sends out daily.
It touch my heart very deeply and is so beautiful and describes my feelings for my lovely Susan. I
hope you find this as beautiful as I have. Best personal regards to all of Sues friends and work partners,
I think of you everyday and thank you for all your kindness.

Doug
