IN OUR LIFETIME
GOD BRINGS ABOUT CERTAIN PEOPLE TO COME TOGETHER
IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER
AND IN MY CASE
I "MET" ONE OF THE BEST FRIENDS
I'VE EVER HAD
WHO I NEVER ACTUALLY "MET" IN PERSON
HER NAME IS JACKIE AVERY
DURING OUR FRIENDSHIP WE SHARED MANY THINGS
OUR LOVE FOR CATS, GARDENING, EMAILS,
IDEAS, TIMES OF JOY; LAUGHTER, TIMES OF SORROW; TEARS
CUSS WORDS, SPOOKY PLACES, PRAYERS, PHOTOS,
BITS AND PIECES OF KNOWLEDGE
THE LIST IS ENDLESS AS IS THE ROAD
WE SHARED ON THAT JOURNEY CALLED
FRIENDSHIP
I KNOW I'M NOT ALONE IN SAYING JACKIE,
YOU TOUCHED MANY PEOPLES LIVES;
LEFT ONE OF THOSE MARKS THAT WILL NEVER
BE ERASED
I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU
AND I THANK GOD FOR BRINGING US TOGETHER
ACROSS THE BIG POND AS HE DID
IT IS MY HONOR AND PRIVELAGE
TO CALL
YOU
FRIEND
REST WELL WITH MR. WHO, KITTY YUM BUM
ERIC AND FLYNN
WATCH OVER IVOR, HIS HEART
HAS BEEN SHATTERED INTO A MILLION PIECES
AND SOMETIME WHEN YOU ARE LOOKING
DOWN FROM HEAVEN, SEE IF YOU CAN SPOT
THAT COFFEE HOUSE IN KERRY;
THE DOG IS PROBABLY STILL IN THE OPEN CAR
IN THE POURING RAIN
YOU AND I ALONE KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS
MFSAGD
LOVE TO YOU JACKIE
ALWAYS
LAURA
IVOR, MAY GOD GRANT YOU PEACE
IN YOUR HEART IN KNOWING THAT JACKIE
IS IN HEAVEN, AND MAY HE GIVE YOU
STRENGTH IN THE DAYS AHEAD
SOULMATES ARE ALWAYS NEAR
IN HEART AND MEMORY
AND JACKIE STILL WALKS BY YOUR SIDE
