Don’t think of her as gone away-
  her journey’s just begun,
  life holds so many facets-
  this earth is only one.

Although no words can really help to ease the loss you bear,
 Just know that you are very close in thought and prayer.
 God Bless
 Love,
 Cindy Harsh Caltabiano

My sincere condolences to Bill & Julie Trout, Jr and their families.  I  am with you in prayer.
