We shared this quote at the end:
"There are stars up above, so far away, we only see their light long, long after the star itself is gone. And so it is for people that we loved, their memories keep shining ever brightly, even though their time with us is done, and the stars that light up the darkest of nights, these are the lights that guide us. As we live our days, these are the ways we remember." -Hannah Senesh
