I Am Always With You
I am gone, release me, and let me go. I have so many things to see and do, You mustn't tie yourselfto me with too many tears, But be thankful we had so many good years. I gave you my love, and y ou can only guess how much you 've given me in happiness. I thank you for the love that you have shown, But now it is time I traveled on alone. So grieve for me a while, ifgrieve you must Then let your griefbe comforted by trust It's only for a while that we must part, So treasure the memories within your heart. I won 't be far away for life goes on. And ifyou need me, call and I will come. Though you can 't see or touch me, I will be near And ifyou listen with your heart, you'll hear All my love around you soft and clear And then, when you come this way alone, I'll greet you with a smile and say,
"Welcome Home."
Rosealind Veronica Allison Perry was born in Atlanta, Georgia on September 2, 1966 to the late King Donald (Queen Barbara) Allison. Rosealind entered into the gates of heaven on December 11, 2013. She was preceded into heaven by her parents, King Donald Allison and Queen Barbara Allison; husband, Mr. Derrick F. Perry; daughter, Jamila Perry; and brother, De1nario Allison.
Rosealind attended Atlanta Public Schools and graduated from Fulton High School in 1984. She was united in Holy matrimony to Mr. Derrick Perry in 1989. She was outgoing, outspoken and very, very humorous. Rosealind was truly blessed. Her personality touched many lives. Her spirit left an indelible imprint and her memory will be cherished for ever.
Our sister, mother, grandmother, aunt and friend leaves to cherish her precious memory: six daughters, Zikkyia Allison Perry, Quashunna Allison Perry, Jasmine Perry, I'Eshea Perry, Joycelyn Perry and Onastacia Perry; three sons, Derrick Perry, Faheem Perry and Jamal Perry all of Atlanta, Georgia; five sisters, Cynthia Pugh (William), Felecia Allison, Lakeisha Allison, Tamika Allison and Knitra Allison all of Atlanta, Georgia; eight brothers, Mr. Donald B. Allison, Mr. and Mrs. Keith L. Allison (Sorita), Mr. and Mrs. Melvin Allison (Jessica), Mr. Timothy Allison (Neisha), Mr. and Mrs. Rodney Allison (Latasha), Mr. Larmarcus Allison, Mr. Brandon Allison and Mr. Zachary Allison; five grandchildren, Ma'Shaila, Azaria, Londyn, Joe and De'Angelo all of Atlanta, Georgia; four aunts, three uncles, two very special friends, Clementine Mitchell and Alonzo Ross "Pee Wee"; sisters-in-law, Yvette Perry and Dorothy Perry; brother-in-law, Terrick Perry; and a host of other family and friends.
Rosealind left no stones unturned; she fought her battle with laughter in tears and know we must carry the torch with her name with the words of courage and inspiration to all we pass by and all we welcome into our lives. Indeed, our sister lived with pride and our growth together will last forever. In memory of our precious sister and mother,...,love of our lives; she's not gone, she's just resting - until we meet again.
I'm Free
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free. I'm following the path God laid you see. I took His hand when I heard Him call. I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day.
To laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way. I found that peace at the close of the day.
If my parting has left a void. Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Oh yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full I've savored much. Good friends, good times a loved ones touch. Perhaps my time seen1ed all too brief. Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts and peace to thee. God wanted me now,
He set me FREE!
