No farewell words were spoken,

No time to say good-bye,

You were gone before we knew it,

And only God can tell us why.

It broke my heart to lose you,

But you didn't go alone,

For part of me went with you,

The day God called you home.

    Dear Rob and Iann, I am sorry for your loss. It's been over 6 years since my dad died. I think losing a parent is always hard. Focus on the happy memories you shared as a family, laugh, cry, and do it over and over again for months and years. Time does, in a sense, ease pain, and yet, there is always a tender spot that remains. I am praying for you and your family. Sincerely, Tara Foster
