Thank you for your poem. Mary Anne has made heaven and earth a better place. You have also enlightened several peoples lives. I hope you continue your journey of life remembering and cherishing the memories of Mary Anne. May you also continue to live your life to the fullest and spread your love to your family and friends. Hang in there Ed. You are an amazing person. Your daughters are fortunate to have you as a father. You are caring, a listener, honest, and motivated to always do the right thing. The world is a better place with people like you!❤️John
Edwin, Alice and Lillian, such a beautiful poem and such a wonderful Facebook post. You three continue to live your lives in tribute to an amazing mother, wife, friend and sister. Very blessed to have Mary Anne in our lives, even if the time was way too short. Sending hugs to you today and every today.
Ed and family.
A beautiful comment on such a sad anniversary; thank you for sharing it with all of us. I think of all of you often; it's reassuring to hear that you are moving forward with confidence. The loss of Mary Ann is now a memory of treasures, different for all of us. May they bring us all some comfort and peace as we remember.
I've often thought of you and the girls over the past year and am in awe over how much Mary Ann's passing has affected us all, and most especially, you. It sounds like you have responded much as she would have hoped you would, with dignity, grace and gratitude for all she's offered to you and the girls.
Ever the wise teacher, it sounds like she's still gently guiding you as you continue to move forward with your life!
I don't know if this makes any sense, but this has been both the longest and shortest year ever. As others have noted, I commend you for drawing love & support from the community of love that surrounds you and your family. May it bring you a measure of comfort knowing how deeply so many feel this loss with you. Mary Anne left an indelible mark on the world for certain and your poem was a truly heartfelt tribute to that. Sending you & yours love and prayers today and always.
What an absolutely beautiful poem Edwin. I am so glad that you have surrounded yourself with so much support, which is essential for moving forward. Thank goodness you have not turned inward. I’m thinking of you all and Send lots of virtual hugs
God Bless,
Sarah and Jack too
