“Your lives were blessings, your memories are treasure. You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure. 

“Death is the last chapter in time, but the first chapter in eternity. No farewell words were spoken, there was no time to say goodbye. You were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why.

“You may be gone from our sights, but you are never gone from our hearts. It’s hard to forget good people that gave us so much to remember. 

“Goodbyes are not forever. Good byes are not the end. They simply means ‘We will miss you, until we meet again.’

“The song is ended but the melody remains.

“Adieu, my lovely Children, we’ll forever love you all. Our hearts are broken.”
