In my heart you will forever stay / Melissa (Daughter) Dad, I wrote your name in the sky but the wind blew it away I wrote your name in the sand but the waves washed it away I wrote your name in my heart and forever it will stay........
As a little girl I look up to you walking in your steps was all that I knew. The games we played, the times we've shared you've shown in everything, the way you've cared.
The older I got, the more I knew the joy it was to be with you. You've always been around for me and always loved me unconditionally.
You've often shown me right from wrong and taught me to be meek and strong. Your patience and your gentle care was everlasting and always there.
A young lady I soon grew up to be and academics I accomplished successfully. With all your love and all your praise a successful woman you surely did raise.
Dad, in writing this I just wanted to say how much I love you in every way. You'll always be the king of my heart because you were my love from the very first start. Love, Melissa
Grandpa/ Nick (Grandson) Grandpa I can't stop missing you I'll think of you often, And I'll miss you so. Whenever you visited, I didn't want you to go. I miss you more then words can say. and I want to let you know that I'm missing you today. Love, Nick
MY LAST CALL TO GRANDPA It broke my heart to lose you, But you didn't go alone, A part of me went with you, The day God called you home. A million times I'll miss you, A million times I'll cry, If love could have saved you, You never would have died.
I can not call daily, As I so often did before, I'm sending a phone to heaven with you, so I can call and check on you there.
If tears could build a stairway and Heartaches could make a lane, I would walk a path to heaven and Bring you back again.
AS WE TRAVEL THIS DIFFICULT JOURNEY~KNOW YOU AND ALL WHO LOVE AND MISS PAUL, ARE IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS~MAY GOD HOLD YOU TIGHT IN HIS LOVING ARMS, GIVING YOU STRENGTH, LOVE AND PEACE~
When you wake up tomorrow and I am no where to be found When you scream out my name to the emptiness around When every beat inside your heart is skipping and unsure Cry not my friend for I am here, inside your love so pure
When the waves that used to touch our feet have gone back out to sea When everything you once held dear was lost when you lost me When the sun that once lit up your face is setting far away Cry not my Friend for time shall pass, but my love for you will stay
When age arrives and children play and pain creeps up on you When loved ones show you happiness that your life never knew When all of your expectations are met, no matter what the pain Cry not my friend, for I am waiting to hold you once again
When beauty in your eyes turn gray and all of the rainbow, white When strong undying hearts no longer feel an urge to fight When winter snows become more pain than beauty in your heart Cry not my friend, for I am here and we will never ever part
If I had one last day to tell you what's inside I'd tell you that I'm sorry For all the times I've lied I'd tell you that I need you To hold my hand today I'd tell you that I love you I'd ask you, please, to stay You'd look at me and smile The way you always would And say "I'd love to stay, If only I really could" Then you'd laugh the way you did Whenever I was blue You'd wipe my tears and whisper softely, "Don't cry, I love you too" If I had one last day I'd love you from the start I'd stop hiding how I feel I'd say what's in my heart If I had one last day, I'd say my last good-bye and that even though you are far away, In my heart, you'll never die.
He Is Gone, But Not Forgotten / Melissa (Daughter)
He Is Gone, But Not Forgotten
He is gone, but not forgotten His memory lives on Dad, you were a blessing Who fulfilled our lives for so long.
Now our eyes are filled with sorrow For without you is how we face tomorrow Laughter is how I remember you best Full of faith, sunshine, and happiness.
Motorcycles, friends, family, and cheer Just a few of the things that you held dear. Holidays and birthdays will never be the same Without you there.
Save a place for me because I'll be seeing you one day, Reunited in Heaven, for eternity we will stay.
Our good times are now a memory As you are laid to rest Know that you are in our hearts We love you and God Bless.
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free I'm following the path God laid for me. I took His hand when I heard His call I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to work or pray. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I found that peace at the close of day. If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy. Perhaps my time has seemed all too brief, Don't lenghten it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts, and share with me God wanted me now, He set me Free.

A SPECIAL DAY... / Jeri ~Laquan's Mom~ ((((Memorial Friend))) )
We Do Not Need A Special Day
We do not need a special day to bring you to our minds. The days we do not think of you are very hard to find.
Each morning when we awake, we know that you are gone. And no one knows the heartache as we try to carrry on.
Our hearts still ache with sadness and secret tears still flow. What it meant to lose you no one will ever know.
Our thoughts are always with you, your place no one can fill. In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still.
There will always be a heartache, and often a silent tear, but always a precious memory of the days when you were here.
If tears could build a staircase, and heartaches make a lane, we'd walk the path to Heaven and bring you home again.
We hold you close within our hearts and there you will remain, to walk with us throughout our lives until we meet again.
Our family chain is broken now, and nothing seems the same. But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
