    To my beautiful mother~
    The tide recedes but leaves bright seashells on the sand.
    The sun goes down, but gentle warmth still lingers on the land.
    The music stops, and yet it echoes on in sweet refrains…
    For every joy that passes, something beautiful remains.
    Love always,
    Mary

    To my dear Mom,

    My two mothers departed Earth
    Within two weeks of each other
    Grief consumed, a hole in my heart
    I struggled to release then part

    It is Spring, a new beginning
    It’s time to continue journeys
    One from the West, one from the East
    Blending the cultures turned out best

    I was touched by two wise women
    Which made me a better person
    Each has a place in my heart’s hole
    Knowing that they are there consoles

    What a tribute to their honor
    A rose from everyone with love
    Colorful roses filled the sky
    Gazing skyward, I said good-bye

    Love you, Charleen

    Do not stand at my grave and weep
    I am not there; I do not sleep.
    I am a thousand winds that blow,
    I am the diamond glints on snow,
    I am the sun on ripened grain,
    I am the gentle autumn rain.
    When you awaken in the morning’s hush,
    I am the swift uplifting rush
    Of quiet birds in circled flight.
    I am the soft stars that shine at night.
    Do not stand at my grave and cry,
    I am not there; I did not die.

    Heaven Needed A Mother – In Loving Memory

    So many things of Mom I miss, her gentle hug and tender kiss, I still can feel her warm embrace and yet picture her loving face. A Mothers’ work is never done and Heaven must of needed one, for Angels’ came and took her hand and led her to GOD’S promised land. She’s surely kept quite busy there, brushing little Angels’ hair. Although there’s sadness, this I know, she’s waiting there, her face aglow. I close my eyes and I can see, her arms still open wide for me – I Love And Miss You Mom.

    Hi Mom,

    It is so hard to believe that it has been two years since you died. So much has happened since that day. I just wanted to say how much I miss you!

    I found this poem for you:

    If Roses Grow in Heaven

    If Roses grow in Heaven
    Lord, please pick a bunch for me.
    Place them in my Mother’s arms
    and tell her they’re from me.
    Tell her that I love her and miss her,
    and when she turns to smile,
    place a kiss upon her cheek
    and hold her for a while.
    Because remembering her is easy,
    I do it every day,
    but there’s an ache within my heart
    that will never go away.

    Please give Dad, Charleen, and Mark my love.

    I miss all of you!!!!!

    Letting Go

    The angels gathered near your side
    So very close to you
    For they knew the trials in your life
    That you were going through

    I thought about so many things
    As I held tightly to your hand
    Oh how I wished that you were strong
    And happy once again

    But your eyes were looking homeward
    To that place beyond the sky
    Where Jesus held his outstretched arms
    It was time to say goodbye

    I struggled with my selfish thoughts
    For I wanted you to stay
    So we could walk and talk again
    Like we did just yesterday

    But Jesus knew the answer
    And I knew he loved you so
    So I gave to you life’s greatest gift
    The gift of letting go

    I love you mom!! Oh I miss you so much!!!

"If I could give 6 stars I would. Aria made a difficult easier to deal with by basically taking care of everything in an efficient but very empathetic manner. I can speak highly enough of Dusty Martin, who helped us with all of the planning and logistics. He was incredibly understanding and helpful."

"Nothing prepares you for the grief you go through when losing a child. I called this funeral home at 2:00 am broken and could barely talk. The amount of compassion and empathy they showed me immediately let me know I found the right place to cremate my son. I cannot thank them enough for their professionalism, SINCERE concern, and commitment to making sure my son was honored in the most respectful way. I hope this Funeral home values her as much as my family and I do."

"I can’t say enough about how helpful and professional Dusty Martin, the funeral director at the Aria Cremation location on NW Highway has been. From my initial call, he was kind and informative. My friend died at home while on hospice and she was picked up in about an hour after receiving the call from the hospice nurse. The person who arrived to pick her up was also very professional/respectful and allowed us to take as much time with her as we wished. When I met with Dusty the next day about arrangements, he explained the process and options available without being pushy or trying to “sell” extras. Throughout the process, he kept me informed and, for example, was careful to be certain I understood the cost of the obituary I wanted and offered some options for reducing that cost if I wished. When I stopped by for another reason and started talking about some of the problems I was having with the pictures and media I hoped to use at a memorial lunch I was planning, he not only listened patiently but offered technology advice and let me use his personal media player. I have had experience arranging cremations for four others using two other local companies, and this experience with Dusty at Aria has been by far the best one I have had."

"My Daddy’s service and our family experience at Aria Northwest Highway was truly blessed. Funeral Director Dustin Martin is the kind of person that you would like to see on a more regular basis – but in his industry – you hope to not see him that often. That being said – THANK YOU DUSTIN for your unending kindness, compassion and friendship through the process. Meeting you and discussing Dallas History, Find A Grave and my Dad’s lifelong contributions to the great City of Dallas was simply wonderful! In memory of my dad James A. Dodd, Sr. – I want to personally thank you and let you know that you made everything better in that moment. Your calling to “Be There” is spot on. Aria has a one in a million guy in you! Bling Blinky of TEXAS Shout Out: God Bless You!!"
