"Angels Cry With Roses and Rain"
(edited with Kim Klassen's Pourvous @35% Lighten)
Attended a funeral yesterday. As with the passing of loved ones, sadness is a natural part of the process. But it was also a celebration of a long and loving life. There is a new guardian angel looking over so many of my family and friends. So the next time you see a rose with rain drops...remember that Angels cry with roses and rain. And sometimes those tears are those of happiness. R.I.P.
God Bless...

ReplyDeleteThank you....it was truly a celebration of life. Nothing meant more to Mom than family. I have no doubt both Mom and Dad were smiling down on us and happy that we were surrounded by loving family and friends. I am glad you were all a part of it.
