My father passed away about one year ago from a 10-year battle with Alzheimer's. We miss him very much, but know he is in a better place. We had the most amazing ceremony for him (it really wasn't a funeral) with songs of praise, like "I can only Imagine", and so many people were touched by the joy of the day.

The background of the page was made from changing the hues/modifying the opacity of a photo of the beautiful building on the grounds of the cemetery where my dad is buried. This photo is overlaying a purple background called mgodin_whatever_purple.

Poem on page:

Just because I no longer
stand in front of your eyes
doesn't mean you can't see me.
Close them,
I am there.

Just because I no longer
answer when you call my name
doesn't mean you can't hear me.
Speak softly, listen carefully,
there is my voice.

Just because I can no longer
touch your hands
doesn't mean you can't feel me.
Hold on to another,
my arms are there.

Just because I am no longer there
to show you I love you
doesn't mean my love is gone.
Place your hand on your heart,
feel its beat.
I am there.

Know that I am with God.
Know that God is with you.
And in that we are still with each other.

Just because...
