Dear friends, last night was a beautiful and magical night. I was prepared to share it all with you but the night was cut short learning that? the son of? a very dear friend who was supposed to be there with me last night, died. I am in a state of shock and devastated for them, there is no pain like losing a child.<\/p>\n

My heart is heavy and I am going to take these next few days to mourn his loss out of respect for my friends who mean so much to me. I simply cannot imagine. It is just not in my heart to post at this time and I know you all understand. I will be back next week but want to pay? tribute to him as his family makes the necessary and unimaginable funeral arrangements.<\/p>\n

This poem is dedicated to Brian and the family and friends that mourn him today-<\/p>\n

If tears could build a stairway<\/em>
\n And memories make a lane,<\/em>
\n We would walk right up to Heaven<\/em>
\n To bring you home again.<\/em>
\n No farewell words were spoken<\/em>
\n No time to say Good-bye.<\/em>
\n You were gone before we knew it.<\/em>
\n And only God knows why.<\/em>
\n Our hearts, they ache in sadness<\/em>
\n And secret tears still flow.<\/em>
\n What it meant to lose you,<\/em>
\n No one will ever know.<\/em>
\n You are with the Angels<\/em>
\n High in your heavenly home,<\/em>
\n We would have held you closer,<\/em>
\n If we had only known.<\/em><\/p>\n

?God came for you in silence;<\/em>
\n So swift was your depart<\/em>
\n He holds you now eternally,<\/em>
\n We hold you in our heart?<\/em><\/p>\n

Hug those that are with you today, tell them you love them, life is short and so very precious. Rest in peace Brian, we will all miss you.<\/p>\n
