Journey On...

We remember, we remember
But, we will not ever understand
The truth that took you from us
Stunned by our loss
Try as we might
Numb from the fact
We cannot fathom the purpose

Stars should shine brightly
Forever...

weirdelf I cannot believe you are gone why we just did a workshop together one never knows what fate has in store. To say you will be missed is an understatement You will always be remembered. Why now you and Lon can carry on those heated debates
