Sweet are the memories you gave as we grew together through the years. These memories are all we have to help us hide our tears. We will miss your smile, your joking ways. We'll miss the things you used to say. And though we smile and make no fuss, no one misses you more than us. Life goes on, we know that's true. But it's never the same since losing you.
