Sorry to hear of your loss. May you memories become your treasures.
Life…so fragile. Loss…too soon. Heart…so broken. In the wake of such a loss of Ruthie we are haunted by things we don’t, and may never understand. Yet the solace we seek may not come from answers so we look for comfort in the belief of love's everlasting connection. May that love lift you and hold you close, and give you peace. Grief is the reminder that we loved and were loved. Sharing your sorrow.
