My heart pounds with grief for all of you. Hold tight to each other and remain strong to your faith. Loss is painful and leaves a profound imprint in our lives. I pray that Eugene’s music, laughter and smiles occupy the imprint he has left in your lives. Three years ago, I received a call that my sister, Geralyn died suddenly, brain annurism. The shock and pain was only healed through memories of her and gratitude for being blessed with such a loving sister.
I hope in time, your memories and love of one another will too ease your pain.
Hugs
