We enjoyed knowing you and caring and loving Norma for such a short time. You are now with God and your loved ones. You lived a good life, rest in peace Sam.
"How long does a man live, after all
And what do we mean when we say, ‘gone forever’?
A man lives for as long as we carry him inside us,
for as long as we carry the harvest of his dreams,
for as long as we ourselves live,
holding memories in common, a man lives."
~Brian Patten
