Re: Memorial Candle Question


Posted by dannisayz

I'm just having a single candle next to my grandparent's wedding picture. There will be a mention of them in the ceremony and in the program. I'm going to write a piece myself, but it's emotionally draining. I go into a bad depression when I think about my grandmother (it hasn't even been a year since she has been gone).

I wish I could be more of a help.



I'm sorry for your loss. It is very draining, I know. I am seriously starting to rethink making it myself bc its upsetting.

I typed this up with our family members names on it and it will be framed next to our candle and vase with flowers.....
This is what we're using.....

In Loving Memory

We thought of you with love today
But that is nothing new
We thought about you yesterday
And days before that too
We think of you in silence
We often speak your names
Those we love don’t go away
They’re with us everyday
Unseen, unheard, but always there
Although it seems unfair
Your memory is our keepsake
With which we'll never part
God has you in his keeping
You’re forever in our hearts

Hope this helps....



Thats beautiful! did you write that?



I didn't write it.....I actually found it on here a long time ago.....

Wow. That is beautiful. It made me cry. Thank you so much.



First time I read it, I was crying so much that my mom thought something happened to me....
When I was typing it the other day on cardstock, I started crying as I was typing and reading and then to add our family members names to it, made me cry even more.....=(

I'm sorry for yours as well. If I do end up writing something, I'll FM you it and you could perhaps use it as well?
