Something Beautiful Remains

This card features one of my favorite sentiments to use on a sympathy card . . .

It reads:

The tide recedes but leaves behind

bright sea shells on the sand.

The sun goes down but gentle

warmth still lingers on the land.

The music stops and yet it

echoes on in sweet refrain.

For every joy that passes

something beautiful remains . . .

Wally was a Flight Service Manger on TWA and as a Flight Attendant, I was privileged to fly with him on numerous occasions which were always fun and memorable.  As we airline folks say, Wally has Flown West now . . . rest in sweet peace, my friend.
