You can kiss your family and friends good-bye and put miles between you, but at the same time you carry them with you in your heart, your mind, your stomach, because you do not just live in a world but a world lives in you. —Frederick Buechner

Today I watched my Niece Rosanne say goodbye to her Dad...As difficult of a task, she embraced the challenge and handled it with Charm & Grace...I am always so Proud of Rosanne, but today I appreciated the person that she is even more; if that were ever possible? So sorry for your loss honey, we love you!!
