When you say

I woke this morning with tears in my eyes. Wishing that I was not the only one that missed Jim. I wanted others to feel the pain of his passing. Someone to tell me they missed his laugh.

I came to the blog and read some comments and felt better. He is being missed and remembered. Thank you friends.

This was posted on a grief message board and it seems to fit.


When You Say You Love Me
Josh Groban


Like the sound of silence calling,
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream.

Like the echoes of our souls are meeting,
You say those words and my heart stops beating.
I wonder what it means.
What could it be that comes over me?
At times I can't move.
At times I can hardly breath.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive

You're the one I've always thought of.
I don't know how, but I feel sheltered in your love.
You're where I belong.
And when you're with me if I close my eyes,
There are times I swear I feel like I can fly
For a moment in time.
Somewhere between the Heavens and Earth ,
And frozen in time, Oh when you say those words.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment, there's no one else alive

And this journey that we're on.
How far we've come and I celebrate every moment.
And when you say you love me,
That's all you have to say.
I'll always feel this way.

When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
In that moment,I know why I'm alive

When you say you love me.
When you say you love me.
Do you know how I love you?

Oh Betsy, I would love to be able to say that I miss Jim's laugh-I feel a true loss that I didn't get to meet this wonderful man (or you for that matter)What I do miss, what I CAN say is that I missed the opportunity to know a very wonderful man.
I'm thinking of you and will hold you very close all weekend. And I will smile for you, when I think of how happy you were with this wonderful being-because nobody can take that from you. You were lucky, and you still are.
Love,
Linda
