(in memory of my Dad "James" who served in Vietnam ,bornJuly 11,1934 - died Oct 23,2004 RIP I love you .......) God looked around his garden & he found an empty place. He then looked down upon this earth & saw your tired face.He put his arms around you & lifted you to rest......God's garden must be beautiful he always takes the best. He knew you were in pain ,he knew you would never get well on earth again.So he closed your weary eyelids & whisperd "peace be within ".He then took you up to Heaven with hands gentle & so kind.It broke my heart to lose you ,you now belong to the Divine.You did go it alone Daddy for part of me went with you on the day God called you home.
I miss you & love you so much Daddy.It is the 2 year anniversary of your death today & sometimes it feels like an eternity & sometimes it only feels like yesturday.Either way I will never get used to it , it will always hurt......you were a wonderful Dad & Marine.I do find comfort knowing that when I die & go to heaven you will be there to greet me & we will be together again......but until then my heart remains hurting Daddy .I miss you & love you more than words can say......

I love poetry ,this one is attached to my dads flowers on his grave.... " Do Not " Do not stand at my grave & weep , I am not there I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow I am a diamonds glit on snow I am the sunlight on ripend grain I am the gentle Autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning ...hush,I am the swift uplifting rush , Of quiet birds in circled flight I am the bright stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave & cry .I am not there I did not die.
On my dads headstone it is written "those who fought for freedom have a taste for it ,that the protected will never know. Semper Fidelis
