I closed my eyes, Felt the warmth of the sun on my face. All the grief and pain Was simply too hard to erase.
I could smell the ocean in the air. I opened my eyes only to see you far off in the distance. I called out your name, As I ran to you. My prayers had been answered.
Beautiful as always, You smiled and held me so near. This moment was happening; It was all perfectly clear.
You laughed and said, "I'm happy you're here. Welcome to my beach in the sky, But you can't stay forever,"You see there is a little place at my beach in the sky. “It's called Heaven and I am happy and content "I dance in the sun and play in the waves. I collect seashells and I watch the sun rise and set for All of my days.""I know no more hate, sorrow or grief. I only know love and peace. And I stand firmly with my God on that belief."
You can't be with me on my beach in the sky. "Go back to your world and Be kind and gentle to each and everyone. Have a compassionate heart. “Remember my words "Little things matter. Be the best you can be. Take great care with others As you would a seashell at sea. Be helpful, be strong , And never ask why. That's all it takes To reach my beach in the sky ."I opened my eyes And felt the mean spring-winter cold. It was all an illusion, Everything I had just been told. The snow flurries fell. I was not on a beach But was back in my hell. It could have all been a dream Until I looked down And discovered a seashell!
I am so saddden by the loss of a dear friend of over 30 years we had a lot of laughs my heart and prayers go out to Martin and the boys and their families and the rest of her family stay strong
Dear Family, I am sorry for your loss. Angie was a passionate, fun loving soul. She was so devoted to and proud of her family. She loved to tell stories about her sons and husband. She beamed with love as she spoke. She was a true and loyal friend. I enjoyed knowing her during the LES years. Angie made me laugh and smile so many times. She was devoted to the children of LES. Wonderful person, I am so glad to have know her.
