Ronald Betres

IN MEMORIAM

In memory of our beloved Ronald Betres who passed away one year ago today.

June 16, 1942 to March 16, 2019

You can shed tears that he is gone, or you can smile because he has lived.

You can close your eyes and pray that he’ll come back, or you can open your eyes and see all that he has left.

Your heart can be empty because you can’t see him, or you can be full of the love you shared.

You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.

You can remember him and only that he is gone, or you can cherish his memory and let it live on.

You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back or you can do what he would want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
