Hi its Rachael again,was just going to post this,the services are as follows but sure none of you can make it.
Wednesday,the 26th of January,2011 at 2:30pm
St. Pauls Catholic Church
9 El Pomar Road
Colorado Springs,CO 80906
Yesterday was a very hard day for her,we picked out military flowers in red,white and blue and a urn,and we have music and such to do today and to meet with the Monsignor,thankfully her Mom will be here before we need to go to the Church today for that.
We are also going to gather pictures of John today to have scanned,I started last night and there are so many of the two of them,I am crying just looking at how happy the two of them are. Have a few train and airport runs to make as well,Mom wants to sing for John but I dont think she should,also her asthma hasnt been very good and shes afraid she wont be able to carry a song. Well thanks again you cruise addict guys,she has some good friends here.

Thanks for filling in the additional information Rachael. I so wish I was not on the East coast as I so want to be there for Korina but I will be in spirit. A lovely thought that your Mom would like to sing but I agree...it would be too emotionally wrenching for her as well her health concerns.

Thank you so much for keeping us updated on the funeral arrangements.
Even though we never met Korina or John -- if we lived in the Colorado area we would definitely attend the service.

Sweet idea, Liz. This very old love song keeps popping into my head, but might not be appropriate for a funeral:
More than the greatest love the world has known
This is the love that I give to you alone
More than the simple words I try to say
I only live to love you more each day
More than you'll ever know
My arms long to hold you so
My life will be in your keeping
Waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping
Longer than always is a long, long time
But far beyond forever, you'll be mine
I know I never lived before
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more
More than the greatest love the world has known
This is the love that I give to you alone
More than the simple words I try to say
I only live to love you more each day
More than you'll ever know
My arms got to hold you so
My life will be in your keeping
Waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping
Longer than always is a long, long, long time
But far beyond forever, you'll be mine
I know I never lived before
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more...
More than the greatest love the world has known

I have just finished submitting the Photo of John into the cruise addicts gallery.
I always look for words to fit with the picture, But this time I thought that the words that Jeanie used were so right.
