Hi all.....today was a sad day for us. We were told this morning that Jen's sister passed away suddenly. She was 47. It was not cancer related. I know you will all have us in your thoughts and prayers.

    Jen & Kanga...

    I am very sorry to hear of your sister's passing. You guys know my feelings about death; I'm sorry for you that she will not be with you in person anymore, but I rejoice for her that she has moved on to the next level of this journey we call life. I know you already know the words, but I will share my eulogy with you again:

    I'm Not Here
    Do not stand by my grave and weep
    for I'm not there; I do not sleep
    I am a thousand winds that blow
    I am the diamond's glint on snow
    I am the sunlight on ripened grain
    I am the gentle autumn's rain
    When you awaken, in morning's hush
    I am the swift, uplifting rush
    of quiet birds in circle flight
    I am the stars that shine at night
    Do not stand at my grave and cry
    I am not there; I did not die.

    My thought and prayers are with you and your family. Just remember that time may take our bodies, but nothing can take away the memory we hold of those we love. they remain young and vibrant and with us always.

    - Bob

    Thank you so much, all of you!!!
    Thank you for the eulogy Bob. I have printed it out for Jen and also have saved it. She thinks very sincerely that you guys and gals are so thoughtfull. I told her that if not for you all there would be a very large hole in my life. She understands the bond that we share and I think is very gratefull that we are able to share our lives with each other.
    At the moment I am trying to keep her busy.
    Love to you all,
    Ross and Jen
