To close, I remember a show I used to watch: Ghost Whisperer. Melinda had her moments, and this quote was one of them.

“As a matter of fact nobody ever dies. You wanna know why? Because you’re gonna…you’re gonna live inside of everybody who knew you - everyone you touched no matter how little and the people who love you…they’re never gonna stop thinking about you are talking about you. They’re never gonna forget you because that never goes away. You’re never gonna die because you were loved. You’re gonna live forever…we all will.”

Remember them so they will not die.
