A letter from Heaven


When tomorrow starts without me


And I'm not here to see


If the sun should rise and find your eyes, filled with tears for me


I wish so much you wouldn't cry,


The way you did today


While thinking of the many things we didn't get to say


I know how much you love me,


As much as I love you,


And each time you think of me,


I know you'll miss me too


When tomorrow starts without me,


Don't think we're far apart


For every time you think of me


I'm right there in your heart


The funeral will be held on Saturday, December 9th, at 12 pm, at St Ignatius of Antioch church in Tarpon Springs, FL. Visitation will be held Friday, December 8th at Sylvan Abbey Funeral home from 4-8pm.
