eddie sorry for your loss
So sorry for your loss
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family
Dear All
I think this song says it best.
Love and prayers – Patricia Walsh
Over Mountains
over Trees
over Oceans
over Seas
across the desert
I’ll be there
in a whisper on the wind
on the smile of a new friend
just think of me
And I’ll be there
Don’t be afraid, oh my love
I’ll be watching you from above
And I’d give all the world tonight,
to be with you
Because I’m on your side,
And I still care
I may have died,
but I’ve gone nowhere
Just think of me,
And I’ll be there
On the edge of a waking dream
over Rivers
over Streams
through Wind and Rain
I’ll be there
Across the wide and open sky
thousands of miles I’d fly
to be with you
I’ll be there
Don’t be afraid, oh my love
I’ll be watching you from above
And I’d give all the world tonight,
to be with you
Because I’m on your side,
And I still care
I may have died,
but I’ve gone nowhere
Just think of me,
And I’ll be there
In the breath of a wind that sighs
oh, there’s no need to cry
Just think of me,
And I’ll be there
