Welcome to "Weeping Willows".  My name is Bernie. I created this site for two reasons. First, as a memorial to my sister, Kristi, who was killed in an auto accident on July 20, 1998 and second, as a source of comfort, peace, and hope for anyone grieving the loss of a loved one. I used the name "Weeping Willows" because my brother, Mike, and I each planted a weeping willow tree at the graveyard where our sister is buried as a reminder of our love for her for generations to come.

These pages are a  collection of poems, stories, scriptures, and letters that comforted me and my family through Kristi's death. Some, I personally wrote, while others are links to pages that touched me in special ways. Please take time to read Kristi's page, she was a beautiful person inside and out as you will see. I have even included links to various grief resources that may be helpful in your struggle. Take your time as you view these pages. I pray they touch you in some way.
