In Memory By Larry Chadwick Remembering Death is nothing but one’s fate, For some it’s early, for others it’s late. It matters little after you are gone, But painful to those who must live on. So don’t forget to live your dash, Because too soon you will be ash. Remember today as if it were your last, For it isn’t very long before we all are past. Memories are made by how you live, They have more value when you learn to give. So think of others before your life is gone, And they’ll be proud to carry your memory on. May 18, 2004 If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

It is truth when said our legacy is left to those we touch, and in such, our memory of being is not lost. Nicely said. Susan The whole of the Universe resides within each individual heart. |

So many times when a soul dies. We remember the name and not the face. Sometimes I wonder what will be the memories when I am no more. Will I be one of remembered name's with no recollection of the face. And who that person behind the face? Good One. BonBon |

When we hurt, sometimes our most sacred tears stay hidden and the heart cannot express all the pain that it feels inside. I know the words said to us often pale in the shadow of grief... I want you to know my thoughts and prayers are still with you and Nancy Lee. May you be comforted with the belief that each time we remember, we meet again with those we love, for the heart never forgets. And we here at Passions will never ever forget Larry Chadwick's daughter...Ginger Michelle. ~Heart Hugs, Nancy Lee~ |

Maree, I see your hug and raise you two. Thanks for your kindness. X's2 Sharon, It was indeed the 18th and how I think of you so often. Though I must confess partially because I am so jealous of where you live. Thanks for being such a dear friend. Chris, I'll take the hug absolutely any time. Thanks for being there. Charisma, You picked your name so very well. And thank you for caring. Decaflame, In large part because of encouragement like yours. Thanks.
