My wife &#038; I came to the conclusion, this morning, that we (including my son) have not really dealt with the passing of my father-in-law. Yes, we were fine that it was his time to go, &#038; our son accepted it &#8211; but we never really had closure. We were just discussing it this morning because our son says that Pipo (grandpa) comes to talk with him at night &#038; that he is scared. He doesn&#8217;t even want to talk about Pipo because it makes him &#8220;cry.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>This song has allowed us to forgive and remember to live &#038; to love. We are now setting a date for a memorial service now that the 3yr anniversary of his passing is coming up. <\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;We live, we love, we forgive &#038; never give up!&#8221;<\/em><br \/>Thank you Donna for the song.
