I'm sorry, John. My best hugs and smooches to you, followed by prayers for all who may need a little extra strength at this time.

I raise a toast
to a man I did not know
worthy of kind words
John has said it's so
today I give a heartfelt prayer
for his support
in spirit, I'm there
When time closes the day
Let kind words
wash pains away
and when day breaks
on the 'morrow
Let comforting friendship
ease new sorrow
Let peace find all his friends
let family strength
bind what begins
words aren't enough
to ease what tears us
nor words to God
will ease what scares us
but for Sir John
this day will bring
memories flowing
of lasting things
let my hugs
bring gentle waves
of emotions comfort
for passing days


love to you...ellie
