Memory

My Dearest Family

Some things I'd like to say but first of all to let you
know I arrived okay.

I'm writing this from Heaven where I dwell with God
above where there's no more tears or sadness there
is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of       sight remember that I'm with you every morning,        noon, and night.

That day I had to leave you when my life on Earth
was through, God picked me up and hugged me
and He said I welcome you.

It's good to have you back again, you were missed
while you was gone, as for your dearest family
they'll be here later on, I need you here so badly as
part of My big plan, there's so much that we have
to do to help our mortal man.

Then God gave me a list of things He wished for
me to do, and foremost on that list of mine is to
watch and care for you. And I will be beside you
every day and week and year, and when you're sad,
I'm standing there to wipe away the tear.

And when you lie in bed at night, the days chores
put to flight, God and I are closest to you in the
middle of the night.

When you think of my life on Earth and all those
loving years, because you are only human they
are bound to bring you tears. But do not be afraid
to cry, it does relieve the pain, remember there will
no flowers unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you of all that God has
planned, but if I were to tell you, you wouldn't
understand. But one thing for certain, though my
life on Earth is o'er. I am closer to you now
then I ever was before.

And to my very many friends, trust God knows
what is best. I'm still not far away from you,
I'm just beyond the crest.

There are rocky roads ahead of you, and many
hills to climb, but together we can do it taking
one day at a time.

It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you
too that as you give unto the World so the World
will give to you. If you can help somebody who is
in sorrow or in pain, then you say to God at night
my day was not in vain.

And now I am contented that my life it was
worthwhile, knowing as I passed along the way I
made somebody smile. So if you meet somebody       who is down and feeling low, just lend a hand to
pick him up as on your way you go.

When you are walking down the street and you've
got me on your mind, I'm walking in your footsteps
only half a step behind.

And when you feel the gentle breeze or the wind
upon your face, that's me giving you a great big hug
or just a soft embrace.

And when it's time for you to go from that body to
be free, remember you're not going, you are coming
here to me, And I will always love you from that
land way up above.

Will be in touch again soon.
P.S. God sends His Love.

"DAD"

But you had the look in your eyes
Made me cry when you had to go
All the hurt I was feeling
Wasn't easy to show
You weren't ready to leave, to go
You wanted to stay
But God said no
Leaving your life is a scary thought
I guess it's something that can't be fought
You were a father, and a friend
A meaningful life suddenly ends
An angel is what you were meant to be
Now I think of all you can see
Looking over your family night and day
Saying "I Love You" in your own special way
At night I pray & sometimes cry
While you watch me from a star
Up in the sky........
