I can not imagine this life without you but I pray that I will hear you whisper in the tallest trees and feel your love in the gentle breeze," she continued. "When I miss you the most, our beautiful memories will hold you close... Our Love is eternal and you will always be with me and i will always be with you beyond the bounds of this realm."
