When people pass away, no magic words exist. I often try to find the right thing to say, hoping it might make everything better. But no words, can replace the place of a person. I know from the experience, of my grandmother’s passing, that despite a person not being in body, they never leave you spiritually. May you rest in peace Charlie Rooney, I never got to know you personally, but from what I’ve heard, you were a swell guy.
I’m sorry I couldn’t attend your funeral, but it brings me peace that you’re in a better place, and no longer suffering.
