Farewell
Well yesterday I went to a funeral for my uncle Kevin Rockwell. He is my dad's half brother and was only 55. He has been in bad health for quite a long time so it wasn't necessarily a shock but yet you still are never prepared for death no matter when it comes. The day was sad yet a little bit happy for him to leave his body that was so limited here on this earth. Now he is free to do the things he couldn't. Kevin was a brilliant musician and a man of faith. I know that families can be reunited again one day and he will see his wife and 4 kids again. That understanding makes the loss of a loved one that much easier to deal with. Death is a transition to a new life if just for a little while. I am truly thankful that I have the gospel of Jesus Christ that teaches me the eternal prospective of why we are here on this earth. I'll see you later uncle Kevin.

Sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts are with you.
It is always hard to see someone we love go on....Thank goodness for the gospel of Jesus Christ. I will keep your family in my prayers.
hugs, Britt
