 Welcome Friends(A Tribute to WhtDove) She was the one to Welcome us the one who’d gone before who wrote upon these blue pages of God whom she adored and so she was to venture out to touch so many lives in ways that none could ever doubt the Love she had for Christ a Love beyond all boundaries a Love beyond compare a Love that brought us to our knees to think she’d not be here but, now, what’s feared has come to pass a sore reality that no new words shall come alas until His face we see and then what’s heard? --familiar words-- “Come Friends Eternally.” God bless, Lighthouse Bob |

What a way to spew forth your words of hope and love even in a time of loss. Just as a light house spews forth its message of hope to lost ships. thank you |

This is a beautiful tribute to Rebecca. She welcomed me here with open arms and was always there even when things in her life were falling apart. She is and was a gracious, loving person and if truly there are angels on earth she was one. What a wonderful way to remember her. Thank you. |

Amazing, Bob!! The love and life of Rebecca will surly not be forgotten....not with friends and writers such as yourself! Your poem makes me wish that I would have been here a LOT sooner...to get to know her the way you all knew her. Thank God her words live on here and her love lives on through all of you!! God bless you all!! And rest in peace, Sweet Rebecca...will meet you someday!! Thanks, Bob, for sharing this one...and I will be putting it in the library! Hugs... Becka |

She was a very special friend and moderator of the Spiritual Journeys forum of Passions when I first arrived here in 2000 and I do have many fond memories of those days and of those poets who posted back then, but, today is a new day my poetess friend and I am soooooo very very happy that you have come to join us now and I do believe it is as I have indicated in this poem... one day we will meet again in Eternity. God Bless You and again Welcome Friend. -Bob |

Margherita I do believe what you have written here in your reply is so true and I do believe that it was the heart of Rebecca as well that Love keeps us connected always. Again, thank you for your kind words. In Christ's Love. -Bob |

Probably only you can appreciate the horrendous suffering she experienced before our Lord took her home, Bob. You were an inspriration for hanging in there as long as she did. This is a beautiful tribute. Also appreciate your reposting your earlier write of a white dove. They're in the book of her poetry put together for Tim and the children. We used to read your poetry and marvel at the devotion beauty. Rebecca's with her brother now, and somehow that comforts me. May God richly bless you, Rae |

Rae (sandgrain), Like you've written here, there is such comfort in knowing that Rebecca is in a much much better place now where she will not suffer any longer "the horrendous sufferings" in which she suffered here her last days on earth and where she will be joined with loved ones who have already gone on before to be where she is now in Heaven. It's so very comforting to hear from you and to hear your perspective and of your faith during this time of great loss not only to you but to all of us as we, all who had the opportunity to know Rebecca, so loved and appreciated her so very very dearly. Know that you are in our prayers and I do thank you so very much for keeping us informed and for treating us like family. I am very honored to have my poems included in Rebecca's book of poetry to be shared with family. Thank you. May God continue to bless and to comfort you and yours during this time of healing. God bless you. -Bob |

Susie, Thank you for visiting and for your reply and I am so very happy that you found this poem "just beautiful" because it was written for just one beautiful beautiful person. Thank you again and God bless. -Bob |
