Dear GB

I love you.

You are in my mind today, and as always, on my heart.

I have a hard time understanding what forever means. It seems impossible that I will have to spend the rest of my life without you. I'll never get another hug, or hear another sermon. I keep thinking that if I show up at StBs. you'll be there. I know it sounds crazy, but I have a hard time distinguishing between my hope and reality. I know you are gone, but I can't believe you are. I mean, really, is it possible to not have you here anymore.

I almost drove to visit you again today. I didn't because I wouldn't make it in time. I know it seems ridiculous, but I just want to sit there. I want to lay in front of your stone. I want to feel close to you again. To smell your smell, feel your heart beat next to mine. I want to be reminded that you love me. Because, I don't think I can survive without that love...

I love you, GB...and I miss you.

~Your daugher, Claire.
