Gerald Edwin Minerich

JERRY MINERICH To my dearly "Beloved" 46 family members and to my nearest and dearest friends, all of whom are still on "this" shore of the ("River of Life"). As God the Father has now called me, and I must leave you in this year....to "cross over" to the other shore, this beautiful change....I shall truly adore. As I look back across to your side of the river, here is my message - I wish to deliver.... "Why do you stand here at this place and weep, for I am not here, I do not sleep. I am a "Thousand Winds that blow", I am the "Diamond Glints" upon the snow.... I am the "sunlight" on ripened grain, and the very gentle, "Autumn rain" I am one of those stars up in the night, that "twinkle" - so very, very bright. When you awaken in the morning dawn, I am one of the "dewdrops" upon your lawn...." So to all I say - stand not there and "stop" from having cried.... for I am not here; I have "not" died.... I have merely crossed over to the other side.... Pray for me, - as I will pray for thee.... Private Family Inurnment under the "Johnny Doughboy" Statue for Veterans at the Washelli Cemetery (11111 Aurora Ave N. Seattle).
