The act of creating a memorial for one who has passed away is an act of spirituality. A memorial tells the world that Marco may be gone, but his spirit lives on. A memorial makes a statement that Marco will forever be tied together in the circle of life. A memorial is a statement that Marco's life mattered & continues to matter. The acts of goodness & courage will never be forgotten. A memorial is a way to remember a loved one forever.

Grief -- the Unimaginable Force...
I found this quote on grief and felt this described the emotions very well, as the Unimaginable Force which over takes you. At times it seems that the grief is something that cannot be tolerated any-more, but I believe more the way Laura does that Grief can last a lifetime and can be a major force for change.

Grief is a tidal wave that over takes you, smashes down upon you with unimaginable force, sweeps you up into its darkness, where you tumble and crash against unidentifiable surfaces, only to be thrown out on an unknown beach, bruised, reshaped...
It is the ashes from which the phoenix rises, and the mettle of rebirth.
It returns life to the living dead. It teaches that there is nothing absolutely true or untrue... Grief will make a new person out of you, if it doesn't kill you in the making.
