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.
