The loss of a loved one turns your life upside down. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn’t quite seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp. Condolences to all who are touched by John’s passing.
