Pleasant Baptist Church Cemetery To My Darling Mother To My Darling Mother Connie, So Kind and Humble She always taught me how not to stumble, But if I, she was always right there To give me her love, thoughts, and cares. And for such a long time. It was just me and my mother. Just sitting at home alone With no one to bother. But just like always, the phone would ring. So out the door she went Going to help somebody... that was her thing. So if it were my choice, she would be nominated Mother of the Year Because she brought in our home So much joy, comfort, and cheer. She loved the Lord And she had great faith. She even prayed over me as I slept. Sometimes for my own mistakes. So all and all she was the world to me. One of Gods greatest Angels. .. I desired for everyone to see. She loved my husband, Defonta, and Jade .. .but now shes gone back to Heaven And her bed has been made. So sleep well Mother, and take your rest For I am still holding hands with God, The Almighty One who you loved best. Ill Miss You... Your Loving Daughter, Stephanie D. Ball R E F L E C T I O N S o F O R D E R 0 F S E R V 1 C E / L I F E 0 B 1 T U A R Y T R I B U T E S / A C K N O W L E D G M E N T To My Loving Wife, Connie People come into your life for a Reason... A Season.. .or a Lifetime. When you know which one it is, You will know what to do for that person. When someone is in your life for a Reason, It is usually to meet a need your have expressed. They come to assist you through a difficulty. To provide you with guidance and support. To aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a Godsend and they are. They are therefor the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part Or at an inconvenient time. This person will say or do something To bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met. Our desire fulfdled, their work is done. The prayer that you sent up has been answered And now it is time to move on. Some people come into you life for a Season, Because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of Joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a Season. Lifetime relationships teach you lifetime lessons. Things you must build upon In order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person. And put what you have learned to use in all other relationships And areas of your life. It is said that love is blind, but friendship is clairvoyant. My Friend, My Wife, Thank you for being a part of my life. Kenny...
