    FOR JEAN, in your Loss - I THINK THIS IS COMFORTING..

    Forever in My Heart

    Right now I知 in a different place
    And though we seem apart,
    I知 closer than I ever was,
    I知 there inside your heart.

    I知 with you when you greet each day
    And while the sun shines bright,
    I知 there to share the sunsets, too,
    I知 with you every night.

    I知 with you when the times are good
    To share a laugh or two,
    And if a tear should start to fall,
    I知 always there for you.

    And when the day arrives
    That we no longer are apart,
    I値l smile and hold you close to me,
    Forever in my heart.

    I just sent you a PM on memories. I hope it is what you had in mind. I just this moment wrote it. Hope it helps.

    Not sure if this would be longer than you want.

    Memories by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

    Oft I remember those I have known
    In other days, to whom my heart was lead
    As by a magnet, and who are not dead,
    But absent, and their memories overgrown
    With other thoughts and troubles of my own,
    As graves with grasses are, and at their head
    The stone with moss and lichens so o'er spread,
    Nothing is legible but the name alone.
    And is it so with them? After long years.
    Do they remember me in the same way,
    And is the memory pleasant as to me?
    I fear to ask; yet wherefore are my fears?
    Pleasures, like flowers, may wither and decay,
    And yet the root perennial may be.

    "Memories are like roses in December" I don't know who wrote it but I've always liked this one.

    With every stitch, a memory bound
    into this quilt for you to find.
    Love and warmth, smiles and joy,
    bringing all of that to mind.

    So very sorry for your loss. Memories can be bittersweet.
