CONNECTING TO GRIEF COPING WITH GRIEF CONQUERING GRIEF CONTINUING LIFE WITHOUT GRIEF "Here lies my teacher; Here lies my companion; Here lies my friend. I was blessed to have known him And have him leave his imprint on my life - My Scotty." Some people walk in and out of your life while others leave their mark. We''re always seeking something else, passing the gift of friends so dear. I was blessed to have you as a friend with whom I''d grown so close. To you my friend, I''d like to say your friendship meant the most. As I share this thought with you you''ll know it''s from my heart. Your gift to me was priceless - the value of infinity. How happy I was to have known you and now life''s empty without you. I pray the Lord to keep you until we re-connect. We must learn the mistakes of others, as life doesn''t give a second chance. The circle of friends should be endless as in no beginning and no end. Our yesterdays are now our history; tomorrow is strictly a mystery. Seize today and simply say ... Friends you and me, from now through all eternity. Stephen Paul Tolmie
