Message from Heaven...... I am not so far from you, just a little way beyond; past the cares and past the pain, far past my earthly bonds. When you feel you miss me most, as years go drifting by; each memory will prove to you, that our love will never die.

Think of me as one at rest. For me you should not weep, I have no cares, no toubled thoughts for now I am asleep. The living breathing me that was is now forever still, and time goes on without me as time forever will. Those of you who liked me, I sincerely thank you all. And those of you that loved me I thank most of all. It matters not if time began, if time will ever cease ? I was here, I used it all, and now I am at peace.

No person is ever truly alone. Those who live no more, whom we loved, echo still within our thoughts, our words, our hearts. And what they did and who they were becomes a part of all that we are forever.~~Cheryl Bowling- Meyer Louisville, Ky.

The tide recedes but leaves bright seashells on the sand,the sun goes down but the gentle warmth still lingers on the land. The music stops & yet it echoes on in sweet refrains.... for every joy that passes, something beautiful remains.~~Nikki Coan, Louisville, Ky.

A life well-lived doesn't end any more than the music ends, it echoes through time with whispers of beauty and grace. If we listen, we can hear the encore with our hearts, for the song plays on, just as love lives on. Just remember that grief cannot take away the happiness you shared, that sorrow will fade with time, but love remains forever.~~Cora Meyer, Louisville, Ky.

There beside a grave she stands, a folded flag clutched in her hands. A silent teardrop on her face, her brave young child has entered grace. She doesn't hear the sermon said, just memories run through her head. The child she held so long ago, the child with faith she let go, the child who heard the nation's call, and in the end gave it all, without fear or thoughts of self, thoughts of freedom and little else. The bugle sounds TAPS in the wind, a mournful song it does send. A reminder to us all, that for freedom, this price was paid, and her sweet young to rest was paid.~~May GOD hold and bless you each and every night for the rest of your lives.~~Norma Coan, Louisville, Ky.

The Soldier Poem~~I was that which others did not want to be. I went where others feared to go, and did what others failed to do. I asked nothing from from those who gave nothing, and reluctantly accepted the thoughts of eternal loneliness.... should I fail. I have seen the face of terror; felt the stinging cold of fear; and enjoyed the taste of a moments love. I have cried, pained, and hoped... but most of all, I have lived times others would say was best forgotten. at least someday I will be able to say that I was proud of what I was... A Soldier. ~~Deepest and Heart-Felt Sympathy~~Stevie Coan, Louisville, Ky.~~Thank You Sgt. Kohlhaas for Fighting for Freedom and America.
