Do Not Weep For Me Do not weep for me, For I have loved and been loved by my ohana, By those I loved who loved me back. For I never knew a stranger, only friends. Do not weep for me. I am not gone. We will remember you lovingly, oh Conch! A precious Conch from us has gone A voice we loved is temporarily stilled A place is vacant in our home Which never can be filled. God in His wisdom has recalled The boon his love had given And though the body slumbers here The Conch is safe in Heaven. We loved you, Conch. We always will. Rest in Peace.

It lives in my jungle paradise, after it was sterilized of course. I'm going to Oceanside this week, do you want me to bring it? It longs for your lips.

I remember having a big conversation about how well Conch-y played in relation to other conches with King K after he tried Conch-y out. King K really played Conch-y well! I am touched that so many of the ohana have found it in their hearts to remember our beloved Conch with photos like this. I love you, Conch!!! Suzanne
