At the age of four playing at the back of a church.

A young woman crying and an old lady attempting to comfort the tearful woman. Ignoring the small child by their feet at play.

Until the little girl stands up and tugs on the Ladies hand.

"Don't cry," the child says with a voice innocent and young "Just because they arn't here doesn't mean it's goodbye forever."

Dumbstruck by the child's words

"He loves you, and watches us from above. He watches with my Great aunt too. Don't you cry, that will make him sad."

The girl wiped her tears and knelt to the girl and smiled. "I won't cry anymore."

The child smiles brightly back giving the tear stained stranger a hug.
