Love lives on forever...
Love lives on forever in each memory and thought Of the special ones who meant so much and the happiness they brought.
Love lives on forever- it will never fade away- For, in our hearts, our loved ones are with us everyday.
May this poem bring you and your family the peace and comfort that it has continued to give me after the passing of my grandpa. You will always remain in my thoughts for the bravery you portrayed in fighting for our country
