  1. Your son will live forever in your hearts and memories. A portion of a longer poem whose author is unknown to me seems appropriate today --
    So when you walk the woods where once we walked together
    And scan in vain beside you for my shadow,
    Or pause where we did to gaze across the land,
    And spotting something, reach for my hand,
    And finding none, feel sorrow start to steal upon you,
    Be still.
    Close your eyes.
    Breathe.
    Listen for my footfall in your heart.
    I am not gone but merely walk within you.

  3. Always with you, and the photo shows us so much, as you have shared from your hearts. Thinking of you and Mrs F G, today, memories, with happiness of those times shared together, and sadness, as William has left a huge hole in your lives and those of your family and all friends.

  9. Blessings to a fine family, and thank you for sharing the story of your son with me. Hard for me to believe it's been two years already. Probably not for you, though. My thoughts are with you today.
