Our Lovebug!

One year ago we bade farewell to our precious Lovebug Shannon, gone from mortality, but not gone from our lives. She is in our thoughts every single day. We miss her beyond words to explain. I yearn to hear her voice on the phone, to hold her tight in my arms, to laugh with her, to get her opinion on numerous subjects, to hear the joy in her voice as she made her house a home and loved her husband; to hear her testimony; to watch her serve others; to see her dance in the car. She lived large and I saw her spirit grow through every trial as she submitted to the many challenges that were hers. She became a wonder to all. We are an eternal family linked by eternal priesthood authority and covenants. Our faith in Jesus Christ and the reality of the great plan of happiness keeps us going forward, striving to live lives worthily so that we can be with Shannon in the future. I wish I were a poet or a good writer, so that I could say what I'm feeling inside. It's so deep and sacred I can't speak it.

Thanks to many, many friends and family who surround us with love. That support is amazing to feel and realize and I'm thankful.

To our precious Lovebug we say, "WE LOVE YOU and MISS YOU. WE'RE COMING!
