The Final Flight 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 to play. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I've found that peace at the end of the day. If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Ah, yes, these things too I will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My Life's been full, I savoured much, Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your head and share with me, God wanted me now, He set me free. Author: Unknown It all Happened So Quickly It all happened so quickly Everything just slipped away. It all happened so quickly A few minutes from the day. It all happened so quickly Just like that you were gone. It all happened so quickly I wish I had a magic wand. It all happened so quickly That it felt like a dream It all happened so quickly I have to figure out what it means It all happened so quickly What can I do? It all happened so quickly The hurt feels like it knew. It all happened so quickly Where did you go? It all happened so quickly Does anyone know? It all happened so quickly Can I put my life in rewind? It all happened so quickly If only I could turn back the hands of time. We will miss you daddy Love Fernandez, Melissa and LaRonda Roosevelt A.
