Lady Di,
With each passing moment, times will get better. Tim became the man that he was because of you, and for that reason I must say thank you. Be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might, for God will never leave you or forsake you. I love you much.

I've closed my eyes and fallen asleep;for there's no reason for you to weep,that is a debt we all must pay,and is a sweet and peaceful way i've endured pain and sometimes sorrow;Now i don't have to worry about tomorrow.But life for you must go on.You must not worry because I'm gone, You stood beside me all the way,When I was down you knew what to say. You always told me to get some rest, Let me sleep; I,ve done my best. So please let me rest in peace; The tears you,re shedding soon will cease, You,ll soon realize that this was meant to be; and I thank God because he came for me. Love and miss you always BISHOP BLAIR. From your big sister sylvia.

To the Blair Family,PLEASE accept my sympathy for the loss of your Brother and a MAN i can always call my Friend,just remember"When an emotional injury takes place,the body begins a process as natural as the healing of a physical wound. Let the process happen.Trust that nature will do the healing.Know that the pain will pass and,when it passes,you will be stronger,happier,more sensitive and aware".With this,This is how my friend and GOD shows us How to SURVIVE THE LOSS OF A LOVE.Thank you all and May GOD BLESS.Stan;sr
