Ryan Christopher Hersh Obituary (1996 - 2015)

For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. --John 3:16 Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die. --Mary Elizabeth Frye
