To my dearest family,
Some things I'd like to say.
But first of all to let you know,
that I arrived okay.
I am 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 I am with you every morning,noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through
God picked me upand 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, your 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 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,
if not for some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all what God has planned.
If i were to tell you,
you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over
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 togetherwe can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosphy 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 was 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.

If I had one last day
to tell you what's inside
I'd tell you that I'm sorry
For all the times I've lied
I'd tell you that I need you
To hold my hand today
I'd tell you that I love you
I'd ask you, please, to stay
You'd look at me and smile
The way you always would
And say "I'd love to stay,
If only I really could"
Then you'd laugh the way you did
Whenever I was blue
You'd wipe my tears and whisper softely,
"Don't cry, I love you too"
If I had one last day
I'd love you from the start
I'd stop hiding how I feel
I'd say what's in my heart
If I had one last day,
I'd say my last good-bye
and that even though you are far away,
In my heart, you'll never die.

we love you and miss you!
I miss her so much,
My heart aches.
I wish I could’ve,
Taken her place.
Everyone that knew her,
Loved her more than, life itself.
She was understanding,
So full of life.
Then her time came.
Now I sit here,
Crying because of fate.
Tear after tear.
Why did it have to be this way?
I would do anything,
Just to tell her,
I didn’t want her to go.
I loved her,
More than you could know.
My heart aches,
Because my grandma,
Had to go.

If roses grow in heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me,
Place them in my mothers arms,
and tell her they're from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek,
and hold her for awhile.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
but there's an ache within my heart,
that will never go away.
