First things first, Thank you everybody for all the kind words, and especially the poem. It's really touched me and I'm sure everyone else who's read it. Mama would've loved to see how much people loved her.

Secondly, I wanna request that no one forget her. Don't forget her cocky grin, you know, when she had something mischievious hiding behind her(that's usually when she'd scare me an hour and a half later). Don't forget her laugh, how booming it was. You'd know she was there or even a mile away just from hearing a whisper of it. Don't forget how much she cared for all of you. Sometimes it may have come out as yelling or screaming, maybe cause you were late on your payment, or even not finishing the food on your plate. Whatever the case, just don't forget her. She loved everybody, even the people she was in the process of chewing out.

Mama,
I'm gonna miss you. We had our hard times, but I realize they only came because we cared about each other. You'll have to forgive me, I can be very hard headed, but I think I got that from you. Don't worry, I'll hold onto that. You mean so much to me. I just know you're up there, having a ball with Warren right now. Just don't have too much fun without me, you hear?
I love you,
Trav

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.
