Dec. 24, 1932 – Oct. 3, 2006 We can shed tears that she is gone, or we can smile because she has lived. We can close our eyes and pray that she’ll come back, or we can open our eyes and see all that she left. Our hearts can be empty because we can’t see her, or we can be full of love of that we shared. We can turn our backs on tomorrow and live for yesterday, or we can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. We can remember her and only that she is gone, or we can cherish her memory and let it live on. We can cry and close our minds, be empty and turn our backs, or we can do what she would want: Smile, open our eyes, love, and go on. Love, Earle
