I'm Free 
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 Him call, I turned my back and left it alL 
I couldn't stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way. I've found that peace at the close of 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 son'ow, I wish you the sunshine oftomorrow. My life's been full, I've savored much, Good times, good friends, a loved one's touch. 
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief. Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and share with me. God wanted me now, He set me free.

The Broken Chain 
Mom little did we know on May 6, 2016 That God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly; in death we do the same It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone. For part ofus went with you, the day God called you home You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide, And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same. But as God call us one by one, the chain will link again. 
Love Kelvin, Austin, & Brandon
