I can't even tell you how much I miss hearing your laugh and seeing your smile. Thank you for giving your all. I will never forget you. I think of you daily.
And sheppards we shall be. For thee, my lord, for thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to thee and teeming with souls shall I ever be. In Nomine Patris, el filii, et spiritus sancti.

Bring us, O Lord God, at our last awakening,
into the house and gate of heaven,
to enter into that gate, and dwell in that house where there shall be
no darkness nor dazzling, but one equal light;
no noise nor silence, but one equal music;
no fears nor hopes, but one equal possession;
no ends nor beginnings, but one equal eternity;
in the habitation of Thy glory and dominion,
world without end. Amen.
