Reflections of the joys and life of Pop Pop

As the days and nights go on I can just see those bright brown eyes and that big
smile and you saying to me hello baby and along with that you brought character,
strength, hospitable, sentimental the love and the eventful exciting joys of life. 0
how I will miss the ways you seek the opportunities to enjoy life, to go places and
do adventurous things. But little did I know that God was calling your name. It
broke my heart to lose you but you did not go alone, for part of me went with you
the day God called you home. You left me beautiful memories your love is still my
guide, although I cannot see you, you are always by my side. Our family chain is
broken and nothing seems the same, but as God call us one by one the chain will
link again.

Rest in peace

Love your Friend, your Wife

1 Corinthians 13

If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love,
I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift
of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if
I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am
nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my
body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain
nothing. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not
boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not
delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there
are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be
stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part
and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part
disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child,
I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood
behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall
see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know
fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain:
faith, hope and love.

But the greatest of these is love.
