Grandma D.,
I may not remember the six short months we spent together but I will know how much you loved me. I will not forget playing on the floor with you or cuddling on the couch. I will not forget you telling me "You are such a pretty baby even though you look like your daddy". We made a lot of memories in six months but the love we shared will last a lifetime! I promise to take care of Papa. I love you Grandma D.!
Love,
Paige

THE STARS TONIGHT ARE NOT AS BRITE
ON THIS VERY COLD AND LONELY NIGHT.
YOU SEE THE FIGHT HAS NOW BEEN LOST
COMING TO US AT SUCH A VERY HIGH COST.

WHY DOES GOD ALWAYS CALL US BACK HOME
WHEN OUR WORK HERE IS JUST NOT DONE?
HOW CAN WE LOOK INTO THE STARLIT SKY
WITHOUT CRYING AGAIN AND ASKING WHY?

THE KIDS MISS HER AND THEY WONDER AGAIN
WHY GRANDMA HAS GONE TO LIVE IN HEAVEN.
WE CAN ONLY SAY IT IS IN GOD’S BIG PLAN
BUT EVEN AS ADULTS WE DON’T UNDERSTAND.

SO GOD PLEASE BLESS HER AS SHE LOOKS DOWN
FROM THE HEAVENS WITH A SMILE NOT A FROWN.
AS GRANDMA D IS NOW IN A MUCH BETTER PLACE
WATCHING US ALL WITH A BIG SMILE ON HER FACE.

GrandMa D,

We will always remember camping and swimming with you and Papa when we went camping in the big MotorBus. Thank you for taking care of us and loving us with all your heart. We miss you and we'll look up into the stars every night and always know that you will be there for us. We will make sure Papa feeds the Humming Birds for you cause we know how much you loved to watch them from the deck. Don't worry about Papa, we will all look after him for you...

We Love You GrandMa.....(-:

Our lives will never be the same without Aunt Kath. There are not enough words in any language to describe how wonderful a person she was or how much she will be missed, but seeing her in each of her children and grandchildren will keep her in our daily thoughts. God Bless.

Fill not your hearts with pain and sorrow, but remember me in every tomorrow. Remember the joy, the laughter, the smiles; I've only gone to rest a little while. Although my leaving causes pain and grief, my going has eased my hurt and given me relief. So dry you eyes and remember me, not as I am now, but as I used to be. Because I will remember you all and look on with a smile. Understand, in your hearts, I've only gone to rest for a while. As long as I have the love of each of you, I can live my life in the hearts of all of you.
