We shall cherish them in our hearts of the one we loved and lost forever and ever.
What I can say through all of this is that loving someone is the most important thing in life, but when they pass on---it hurts.  
But we remember the good times, we remember the special times, and yes, the "apple doesn't fall from the tree"...I've heard that mentioned....It's funny, but it's true...I can see myself in both my mom and dad.  But I think I'm more like my dad: he was a tender heart, a caring heart for the underdog--and Momma, she had a heart of Gold.  She gave and gave and gave.  
Love is the best thing in the world.  And if we ever have a chance to love---we can consider ourselves very lucky, indeed.  Love carries on....<br/><br/>
