Your resting place I visit Place flowers there with care But no one knows the heartache When I turn and leave you there A million times I've cried If love could have saved you You never would have died It broke my heart to lose you But you did not go alone For part of me went with you The day God called you home -Author Unknown-

I Am Not There Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow, I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn's rain. When you awake in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush, Of quiet birds circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at grave and cry. I am not there. I did not die. -Robert Hepburn- (In memory of Norbert C. Gessner)

Heaven in Emily's Eyes In the late hours of the day, Emily, you made your journey to Heaven. Meeting up with loved ones and angels, How wonderful it must be. Though we wish you were here again, We can't help to wonder. How beautiful Heaven really is in your eyes. It has to have more beauty for you are there now. Since you left us so suddenly, Very unexpectedly, we cry. Crying to see your beautiful face and smile, To hear your voice and laughter. Your memory will always run strong, We love you too much to forget you. Don't worry dear Emily, We will meet again in Heaven. You maybe gone in body, Though your spirit still lives on through all of us. Once we come to Heaven, coming home to you and God, Will you tell us your stories about Heaven? -Chrissy Campbell (Me)-

"Sadness is in the eyes of of a little child who suffers from a life-threating disease. Its the parents of that child as they watch their child slip through their fingers. Sadness is when a car wreck claims the life of one of your best friends. It's the loss of hope. Sadness is like a wilting flower that does not have the strength to stand up tall. It's the things that make you cry. Sadness is the feeling you get when visiting the Vietnam wall and finding a name of a loved one. It's life; it's death; it's part of human nature." Emily Knauff written spring of 2002

"What is the difference between somebody who shoots a child on the street and a doctor who kills a poor innocent baby, who's only "crime" was to be conceived to parents who did not want him? In the United States there are many acts of violence. All of them are against the law, except one...abortion! There have been about 42,525,620 babies murdered in the United States since 1973, there have been 1,337,450,443 babies murdered worldwide! These numbers change every two or three minutes. What is wrong with this picture?! Well, to start off with, it's MURDER! Now, on the other side, what if the child is the result of rape? That has been one of the strongest arguments supporting abortion...There ARE NO Excuses for killing another human being! That might sound harsh, but we, as humans, have no right to kill each other." Emily Knauff, her speech titled Abortion is Murder

Please Dont Cry Please dont sit round my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die. What makes you think that I would leave? I'm with you mum, so please dont grieve. Our bond on earth was much too strong, Our love will carry on and on... I'm with you as you go to bed, I plant sweet kisses on your head. I'm in the wind, the rain, the snow, I'm with you everywhere you go. Please don't cry mummy, can't you see? I'm safe my spirit soars, I'm free. ~Dawn Glenton~

Remember every 22 seconds a child is murdered by abortion so please pray for the dear children that never get to experience the joy of life
