You are at peace no and with the Lord, our hearts are saddened, but we know we will all be together again. You will always be alive in our hearts and memories. 'Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passedaway; behold, all things are become new.' II Corinthians 5:17.
