A Beautiful Service

We went to Ethan's funeral service today. It was so emotional, for everyone. It's amazing how much the spirit was poured out upon us. It was so powerful. So many amazing things were said. So many tender moments remembered. There was one thing in particular that I remember being said by the stake president; he quoted someone else, but I can't remember who. He said that "To take the sorrow out of death would be to take the love out of life." And it was obvious that Ethan was loved a lot because there were many tears being shed for him. It was such a beautiful service. I'll never forget it.

I LOVE that saying. I'm glad the service went well. I'm so sorry. I feel so sad for all those who were close to Ethan.
