Introduction

When the dark veil of expiration removes one who was here and now to there and forever spoken words may not be sufficient. Herein is a personal collection of original elegies, poems, stories, and vignettes never before published, along with applicable Bible passages. These are designed to provide lighting of imagery, which will illuminate shared events from a gallery of misty memories, offering a sense of sweetness to a time of sadness. During the bereavement process, occasions of questioning, anger, and helplessness may plague a lonely individual. The composition of this compilation provides answers to difficult questions, and offers hope, not only short-term, but eternal-term as well.
