And even though we cry, even though we rage at the senselessness of your death, we will find a smile for you every day hereafter, as you had a smile for us. I remember the first day of your new life, how I counted all your little fingers and toes. Now I hold your hand and kiss your head to say goodbye and let you go. You have gone away from those you love and memories you help make. Rest in peace knowing that what you left behind will be treasured and can never be measured.
