As I sit in Heaven and watch over you every day, I try to let you know with signs I never went away. I hear you when you're laughing, and watch you when you sleep. I wrap my arms around you, to calm you when you weep. Heaven is truly beautiful, just you wait and see, and know with every breath you take, you'll be taking one for me. Wendell was a wonderful husband to Bonnie as well as father and grandfather. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. Until we are together again, you will be in our hearts forever.
