And if i go,while you'r still here....
Know that i still live on,
Vibrating to a different measure
behind a thin veil you cannot see through.
You will not see me
so you must have faith.
I wait the time when we can soar together again,both aware of each other.
Until then, live your life to the fullest.
And when you need me,
just wisper my name in your heart,
............and i will be there.
Craig, Nancy,Craig jr., Kim, Michelle, Mike, Jake,And Bianca,
Blessings to you all and if you need anything at all i am always here.
My Keithypoo will be greatly missed by myself and all who knew him.

Ambrose family-
Words can not describe the tragedy surrounding the loss of Keith. My heart breaks seeing Mike and all of you in such pain, but it joys me to witness the quick moments when a memory of Keith makes you laugh or smile. Last week Keith was just Mike's brother who talked so much during our conversations that I couldn't get in more than a few words, but over the last few days Keith has become much more to me through your stories and fond memories. I know that the holidays will be difficult, but because Keith loved this time of year, I hope that his spirit will pull you through and bring forth all of your cherished memories.
You are such a loving and caring family and I believe that Keith left knowing that you all loved him. He will be missed and surely never forgotten.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
