Forever In My Heart

I have been thinking about Sheldon and Jace all day today.  Since it is Memorial Day, my remembrances of Sheldon and Jace seem heightened.  Not a day goes by really that I don't think of them, but today it seems more tender.  I am grateful for these two amazing people that blessed my life.  I'm thankful to God for his plan for each of us.  Knowing there is more to this life than just what we can see, helps me cope with the terrible loss of losing a grandson and son-in-law.

I thought about going to the cemetery where my parents and brother are buried, but it just felt like more grief than my soul could handle today.  They, too, are family members that I miss yet I know they are safe in God's hands. 

Sheldon, Jace, my parents, my brother Wayne, and my sister, Barbara, are gone for now, but they remain forever in my heart.  I love them and look forward to a grand reunion.

This is the last trip Sheldon, Julie, and Jace
made to Las Vegas before the accident in March.

This is my mom and dad one year
after they were married. 

This is exactly how I remember
Barbara at the time of her untimely
death.  She was a beautiful woman.
