Harold, my brother, a life-long companion
Cherished events, never pass with a loved one.
with great wisdom, god our father, created us to need companionship—one of the many elements of love. our nurturing grandmother, zulica smith studer often stated, god is love! i am extremely grateful to god, that she taught me to pray to him. i submitted prayers for healing, happiness, safety, wisdom, and peace. peace has been bestowed upon you, & the reward of joining those who traveled before you. god states, i have appointed the day you will be born, and i have appointed the day you will come home to me—for i have a decorated robe, & prepared a mansion for you! I cherish our 25th anniversary celebrations, and our trip to hawaii . I am proud of your dedication to work so hard for your own family, who you loved so dearly—a deep commitment to providing love, stability & security. yet you found time & energy to help baba, lucille’s family & your grandchildren. a smile will appear, when I think of you hanging me from the apple tree, hunting expeditions, your falcon, your rendition of the song, Right or Wrong, by Ronnie Dove, and your chuckles on the phone when I shared jokes with you. I am honored to have been your worldLy sister, and will join you as a heavenly sister when god’s purpose for my presence on earth is finished. Lovingly, starr
