Pain in Many Forms
(Dedicated to Tim Major)

A Sonnet by Alisha DePaolo-Neff

Life is tough without you here at this time.
You willbe remembered as a true friend.
We will remember you as you climb.
But slowly out heart for you will mend.

It pained me to hear you had left today.
You always knew how to make others smile.
Now that you have left the world is dark gray.
It feels like we have gone back a few miles.

You always knew when something wasn't right.
Death is a hard thing to learn to accept.
We understand that you went to the light.
When I found out that you were gone I wept.

We will misss you and your sence od humor.
But now it isa long living rumor.


This young lady wrote this Sonnet and read it to the class and thought I would share it with you.... Please PRAY for Tim's family and little sister (His little sister is a freshman this year).

We lost a young man @ the high school I work @. I don't know the whole story but what I have heard is that he had a accident with a 4 by 4.


Please pray for David Douglas HS...

Thank you so much...


Also please PRAY for me...
It's been a long week...
