We learn so much from others in life - be it directly or indirectly. We come to share traditions, experiences and memories. This somewhat helps to shape us into the functional beings that we are.
While the influence of your life wasn't a direct pour into my life, the things that I've learned from you through others will always be cherished. From you I've witnessed a true gift - the ability to selflessly put others' needs before your own. The special care and attention that you give each person you come in contact with is a true testament to the nature of Christ within you. You understood the importance of servitude and sharing life's joys. Even in death, you knew the appreciation of life.
And though you've gone on to celebrate with the Father, you've left a gift here that keeps giving … I only hope that my life shares some of the remnants that you left behind.
So on this day, Happy Birthday to you!
