    What does the word "Siempre" mean?

    I know that the actual translation of "Siempre" means forever, but when used in conjunction with a death or funeral, is there a more colloquial meaning? E.G. When Severiano Ballesteros died, I saw headlines of "Siempre Seve". The literal transtlation "Forever Seve" doesn't make sense. Could it mean "remembered forever" or something similar?
