No Words

There are no words to describe all of the thoughts and emotions swirling around inside of me today. No words, and yet my finger seem to find all the right keys to put sentences together. Today the world lost an amazing man. Trent Daren Whiting passed away early this morning. My Uncle D. I think Uncle D must have taken the words with him when he left today.

Vinny and Crush... My cousins. I love them so much and I would give anything to be with them now. I'm so grateful for the relationship that my family has. Separated by thousands of miles and a couple of angels, we still are close and connected through our pains, joys, memories, and love.

Uncle D was welcomed into heaven today by Grampa Dan. I'm sure of it. Heck, my little dog Willy might have been there too, if he wasn't off sleeping under a blanket somewhere. Up there with generations of loved ones, I hope Uncle D is finally finding peace. Finding peace with himself and finding peace from the devils that have been in his life for far too long.

I write all these words, and yet... None of them really seem to sink it yet...

I don't know what to say, but the silence is unbearable.

I can simply pray that my family will find comfort through our trials. That we will recognize God's hand in all of this.

Uncle Daren, I love you so much. I don't know if you get the internet in heaven to read this and all the Facebook love, but I hope you get these words.

Hugs and kisses from thousands of miles and a few angels away,
You're Small-town-girl,
Sammy "Paddles" Farr
