Now Gone

I don’t always find living my life so easy, With our time of being together now gone.

Although it is so hard with you not here, I do know, that my life must continue on.

I miss all of the things we always shared, and so many things we had not yet done.

Everything that was special with only you, which can not be replaced; not by anyone.

I know I have to continue on with my life, until time comes for me to again join you.

If I were able to hear you speaking to me, I’m sure, you’d be saying these words too.

Although my sad heart still aches for you, and my life isn’t the same as it was before.

Life is far too precious not to be fully lived, and I’m blessed, to still have time for more.

Memories of you will forever be my strength, and they will live, with you inside of my heart.

I will remember everything you mean to me, instead of living the sadness of being apart.

So I will always carry your love in my heart, living my life the best way that I know how.

Remembering this is what you’d want of me, and I must therefore start to live again, now.

Dear Son In Heaven...

Dear Son In Heaven…

We sit here and ponder how much We’d like to talk with you today There are so many things That we didn’t get to say.

We know how much you care for us And how much we care for you, And each time that we think of you We know you’ll miss us too.

An angel came and took you by the hand, and said Your place was ready in Heaven, far above..

And you had to leave behind, all those you dearly loved.

You had so much to live for, you had so much to do…

It still seems impossible that God was talking to you.

And though your life on earth is past, in Heaven it starts anew You’ll live for all eternity, just as God has promised you.

And though you’ve walked through Heaven’s gate We are never far apart For every time we think of you son You’re right here deep with-in our hearts.

Love Always, Dianne & Barry Johnson Sr. Ann & Waddell Hightower Sr.

BROTHER

You gave no last farewell, Nor ever said good-bye.

You were gone before we knew it, And only God knows why.

A million times we will miss you.

A million times we will cry.

If love alone could have saved you, You never would have died.

In life we loved you dearly.

In death we love you still.

In our hearts you hold a place, No one else can fill.

It broke our hearts to lose you, But you didn’t go alone, For part of us went with you, The day God took you home.

We will meet again someday We know in a better place.

We thank God He made you our brother While you were here on earth.

As you have become our angel, We thank God for the memories that we will cherish forever.

Love Always, Your Sister & Brothers
