  5. My sincere condolences to the Nellis family.
    Family… Is like a beaded chain… Everyone is linked together. You feel everything… The happiness the sadness..the pain. So know you are never really alone.. your dark days as well as your bright days are felt by your family. Yet know that love is unconditional. Always.

    In the end when we leave this world .. we loose a bead on our chain…. It’s felt by everyone. It’s lost that part is broken… Missing.. empty. This is Grief… It’s felt throughout the chain… The closer the beads the stronger the grief..the pain ..the lost.

    This is where the family bands together not to replace the bead but to help mend the broken link. It’s the love n support we give to each other when family is lost

    To the Nellis family your loved and needed to keep your beaded chain strong .. 💓💓💓💓 hold tight to the memories..turn to each other for the love 💕 rest easy Earl The Pearl.. a Eastside Original….
