Hi Guys,
Hey tambo glad you enjoyed the post, hope you are well into your day 5 and moving foward.
The services for my neighbor was today. His brother had a friend, a blind Irish ballad singer peform at the Mass and the lunchion. They started with "Morning has broken" by Cat Stevens, they sang the "Song of St Francis" "Amazing Grace" and – the one that got me- some Irish balad at the end. I haven’t been to Mass since my brothers funeral and I was a row ahead of my sister and nieces. I lost it on the last song and my niece came to me and rubbed my back and let me cry on her shoulder. His brothers spoke of some nice memories with him and his sister read a beautiful poem.I must say it was a moving and wonderful service befitting the man who loved nature and was a friend to everyone who ever met him. At a Catholic funeral they hand out rememberance cards. I have one with an Galic Cross on it with the following verse:
Grieve not…nor speak of me with tears…but laugh and talk of me…as though i were beside you.
I loved you so…’twas Heven here with you.
lovely, don’t you think?
peace
bettie
