Dear Audrey--- thank you for letting us know that Dick is now at peace. I know your loving care , when that was all you could do for him, meant so much, and I know he is always "here in your heart." I'm glad if CARE folks were able to help lighten the load for a while. {{{{{{{{{{{{{{Audrey}}}}}}}}}}} snipped >So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart, >for every time you think of me, I'm right here in your heart. > > >Dear Friends, >It is so hard to write this, I couldn't do it any sooner.
