In Memoriam

We pause to remember our great-grandparents, grandparents, mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins, husbands, and wives. Though they may no longer walk beside us, their presence is deeply woven into the fabric of who we are.

They were keepers of our stories, the builders of our traditions, the quiet strength behind generations of love and sacrifice. Their laughter once filled our homes. Their hands once held ours. Their voices still echo in our hearts.

Some gave wise counsel, others offered a comforting embrace. Some showed us how to be brave, how to forgive, how to keep going when life felt heavy. Whether by the example they set or the love they gave so freely, each left behind a light that continues to guide us.

We miss their smiles, their quirks, the way they made ordinary moments feel like blessings. But even in our sorrow, we are grateful for the time we had, for the memories we carry, for the love that never fades.

They live on in our laughter, in our gatherings, in the values we hold dear. Every kind word we speak, every act of compassion we give, every lesson we pass down - these are the ways we honor them.

May we never forget where we come from
and may their souls rest in peace,
knowing they are
forever remembered,
forever loved,
and forever a part of us.
