ID THE PEACE OF GOD, WHICH PASSETH ALL UNDERSTANDING SHALL
KEEP YOUR HEARTS AND MINDS THROUGH CHRIST JESUS.
PHILIPPIANS 4:7
TO THOSE I LOVE AND LEAVE BEHIND
When I am gone, release me, let me go,
I have so many things to see and do.
You must not tie yourself to me with tears.
Be happy that we had so many years.
I gave you love.
You can only guess how much
You gave me In happiness.
But now it's time I traveled on alone.
So grieve a while for me if grieve you must.
Then let your grief be comfort by trust.
It's only for a while that we must part.
So bless the memories within your heart.
I won't be far away, and life goes on.
So if you need, call and I will come.
Though you can't see or touch me.
I'll be near and If you listen with your heart.
You'll hear all of my love around you soft and clear.
And then when you must come this way alone.
I'll greet you with a smile and say,
"Welcome Home"...
Grand-Daddy,
I love your so much and you were a great grand-daddy
Love Ineria
Grand-Daddy,
I love you. I knew you were very very sick.
Love Luke
Grand-Daddy,
I love you so much
Love Inashia
Daddy....
If only I knew... If I had known, Thursday would be
the last time I would see you, I would have spent more
time with you. I could have cooked you breakfast. I
could have held your hands as I walked you Into the
doctor's office and even stayed there longer with you. I
only thought we had more time. I was busy and had to
go to work. If only I knew, I would have stayed by your
side.
The times that we shared was precious and priceless
and can never be replaced. I will always love you
daddy and you will always be In my heart.
I will miss your sense of humor and of course your funny
Jokes. You will be missed but never forgotten.
We love you
Daughter & Son
Aprel and Tyrell
Billy....
Honey, time had a way of reuniting us. But I know it was
God and He did It his way. We had some happy and tun
times. I thank God for the times we laughed and played
together and most of all the times in the last few months
that we prayed together and studied God's word
together. And today when I say good-bye to you, I am
happy that God saw tit that when we said 'Till Death Do
Us Part: It was in God's will.
Love Forever
Inez
