To The Black Alpinist  
Memories Keep Those We Love
Close to Us Forever
Although words seem to say so little,
I hope they help in some small way
to ease the sense of loss
that you're experiencing today.
 Sun with Birds Flying
Hold fast to your memories,
to all of the cherished moments
of the past,
to the blessings and the laughter,
the joys and the celebrations,
the sorrow and the tears.
They all add up to a treasure
of fond yesterdays
that you shared and spent together,
and they keep the one you loved
close to you in spirit and thought.

The special moments
and memories in your life
will never change.
They will always be in your heart,
today and forevermore.

 -Linda E. Knight

With deepest sympathy

I work at Banta Integrated Media where Vladimir last worked,
may the grace of God comfort all who loved and care for Vlad and the
rest of the crew who passed. God Bless
