You may share a memory with the family at www.englewoodfh.com We are two, sailing together under the heavens, over the seas. Stretched on the winds. Sunlight warms us, clouds wheel after us. We are like birds, will ‘o’ wisps. Yes, we are two birds sailing together and when death comes, human and humbled we’ll be. When one of us must go, let the other follow, let the flight be ended, the fire blacken, the words fade, let the book close.
