To my dearest Anthony



To my dearest Anthony. Who I love with all my heart. There comes a time in all our lives that sadly we depart. I love to watch you sleep the expression on your face. The innocence the glory the life you have to face. Be kind to ones around you no matter who they are comfort them and love them with that you will go far. I know I taught you well and taught you to be brave to celebrate my life and all that I have gave. And if it is without me all you have to do is close your eyes and see me I'll always be with you
