Julie would best describe the moment with the following words by Brandy Clark:

      “Remember me beautiful,

      Remember me young.

      Remember me smiling,

       My face towards the sun.

      Remember me happy,

      When you remember what was.

        But most of all,

       Remember my love. "

It has been a beautiful and awesome journey. My Julie, Heaven's Judy, I miss you and I love you both."-John, your Love.
