Ken and Family:
Sorry we were away and could not attend the Funeral Service, We do want you to know that we are thinking of you and the family; as you have to go through the loss of someone so special...When dad passed away Dawn sent us the short prayer below, it gave us another way to look at our loss, and gain a very large appreciation for you and Dawn.
Take Care
Lyndon and Dallas Flad
Alone, yet never quite alone, I face an empty chair.
But sometimes in the silence, I imagine you are there.
The good companion of the past….no longer here with me.
And yet in some mysterious way, you keep me company.
Ghost or Angel? Does it matter? Words are meaningless;
I only know that in my times of greatest loneliness, I
feel that you are somewhere near, though nothing’s seen or said.
The bitter moment passes and my heart is comforted.
I receive the strength I need, I am rescued from despair;
Maybe, that’s the way God works. The answer to a prayer.
Though my loss is grievous and the future unknown.
I face with hope the years ahead, alone, yet not alone.
