Joan/Mom loved to sing and Rabbi Jack Stern, JR. writes: "It has been said that there are several ways to mourn. One is to weep; and we have done our share of weeping. Another way to mourn is to SING: to sing a hymn to life, a life that still abounds in sights and sounds and vivid colours.... We SING the songs of our beloved; we ASPIRE to their qualities of spirit; we TAKE UP their tasks as they would have shouldered them. "
Each of us, in our own way, have done just that... taking us with you... never far from our thoughts. Four years have come and gone and still our hearts are missing you.
