In Memoriam – My Parents

wedding54_0001-5

19 June was my parents’ wedding anniversary.

My mother, Birgit, born 20 February 1930, died on 26 May 2009, i.e. shortly before their 55th anniversary. My father, Bertil, born 29 August 1931, “joined her” yesterday, 18 June 2011 – the evening before the 57th anniversary of their wedding.

LILYCROS

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon them.
May they rest in peace. Amen.

this is a wonderful photo memory. You already know I am thinking and praying for you and your brother. Hugs from across the ocean.
the fence will not stop me, but the ocean does.

großes danke, dass du uns hier an deinem leben teilhaben lässt. ich sende mein mitgefühl aus der ferne, einen hauch von rosenduft deep from my heart. ich wünsche dir kraft und trost - und hoffe es kommt ein wenig davon an.
hier brennt eine kerze für dich, wärme und licht .... sei gut zu dir!

What a lovely picture. I know you are going through such a hard time now, Monica. My prayer for you is strength, and the true peace that God gives. I know you may not feel like it, but you are a very strong person.
