Oh this is just perfection, easy flow
with the wonderful word choices. Sensitive,
loving and heartfelt, not at all like a
greeting card--just well penned and straight
forward. Exquisite. Lora

Comment from Dutchie
Hi Marijke. At first place my condolences. You did a great job to write this for Ken and your sister in law. I can imagine words are hard to find on this moment for her
It's terrible to lose your beloved big brother, but you expressed her feelings well.
A wonderful last farewell. Lots of love and smiles from miles. Fietje xxxx

Hi Fiona:)
This is a beautiful goodbye to your sister-in-law's brother. I'm sure she must see it as the perfect send off for such a sad occasion.
Love and Irish hugs to pass on to your sister-in-law and her family.
Roger.

How sad. I think you did a lovely job with this poem and the family should be very pleased with it too. I don't remember if I already told you this and apologize if I have, but I will be off site for awhile getting ready for surgery on my broken ribs. This darn saga is going on far too long!

Comment from Marykelly
There is a simplicity to this poem that speaks from the heart. Ken has passed on but he will be missed as a big brother and someone who absence is real physically but unreal emotionally.
