In the family's own words
As I go through life, I’ve come to believe A hug is wonderful thing to receive. And I’m also learning the longer I live, That a hug is a marvelous thing to give. Love, encouragement, congratulations, “I care.” These are a few of the thoughts you can share. Whatever emotions you want to convey, It can probably be done with a hug today.
