The Memory of Our Departed Loved Ones
"When we love, we remember; and this memory, the effect of love, is not a barren
thought. It
resolves itself into DEEDS for the loved one. Why, when sorrow is united with
faith, should not our
sad memories resolve themselves into sentiments sweet and precious to the soul?
To recall the
features, the accents, the manners and the sentiments of a loved one is still to
see him, to hear
him to touch him and to associate him with the joys and sorrows which he
formerly
shared."-Gergeres
