Andrew: True Friendship Never Dies

First of all I want to say how deeply sorry I am for your loss of your daughter Ester. I have known her for a couple of months but have always been there for me when I wanted to have a chat or felt down and out. We are all going to miss her very much; I am just sending you the following poem about friendship because that is what Ester was to me a very good friend.

I wrote this poem for my friend Ester, who always took the time to listen to me and help me through my problems when nobody else would.

True Friendship Never Dies
I feel I’ve lost a thousand years, just living day by day.
I’m hidden behind the pain and tears, my sorrow guides the way.
I cannot see where I have gone, or where my life shall go.
But leaving you, my friend, is the only way I know.
It will be painful, I will be weak but true friendship never dies.
So call upon the Greatest Power, when you feel you can’t survive.
He will heal your saddest hours, and keep our memories alive.
For in the eternal love of God, true friendship never dies.

In Loving Memory of a Good Friend,
Who will be sadly missed.
