Wishing you an Independence Day
filled with pride in our country
and the special love and support
of our family and friends.
They say there is a reason
They say that time will heal
But neither time nor reason
Will change the way we feel.
For no one knows the heartache
that lies behind our smiles,
No one knows how many times
we have broken down and cried.
We want to tell you something
so there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of
but so hard to be without.
We cannot bring the old days back,
when we were all together
The family chain is broken now,
but memories live forever.

~BLESSINGS~
"BLESSINGS CAN BE A LOVING SMILE,
OR EVEN A SOFT TENDER TOUCH,
A KIND WORD SOFTLY SPOKEN.
THESE BLESSINGS MEAN SO MUCH!
BLESSINGS ARE A SPECIAL FRIEND,
BEING THERE IN TIME OF NEED,
LENDING A HAND AND ENCOURAGEMENT,
BY DOING A LOVING DEED!
BLESSINGS ARE WHEN SOMONE CARES,
WHEN OUR LIVES SEEM TO BE ADRIFT.
BLESSINGS ARE HEARING A PRAYER,
THAT GIVES OUR LIVES A LIFT.
BLESSINGS ARE KNOWING OUR GOD IS NEAR,
OUR EVERY PRAYER HE WILL HEAR!
GIVING US COMFORT, INSTEAD OF FEAR,
TRUSTING HIM WITH ALL WE HOLD DEAR"

"When it seems that our sorrow is too great
to be borne, let us think of the great family
of the heavy-hearted into which our grief
has given us entrance, and inevitably, we
will feel about us their arms, their
sympathy, their understanding."
