Share Your Thoughts and Memories

"Although we know that after such a loss the acute state of mourning will subside, we also know we shall remain inconsolable and will never find a substitute.  No matter what may fill the gap, even if it be filled completely, it nevertheless remains something else.  And actually, this is how it should be.  It is the only way of perpetuating that love which we do not want to relinquish."  --Sigmund Freud in a letter to a man who lost his son.

Dear little Zachary, my darling grandson, how I'll miss you! Every time I thought of youl I would have to smile; you were always sunshine, always smiling. No little boy could have had a better disposition. When I would go to visit you, I would be happy to think that, at the end of the trip I would see you, Kristin, and your mom and dad. In such a short time, you brought love and joy to so many people. I'll love and remember you and Kristin, and your mom always. My heart goes out to your dad, and his mom and family in this loss.
