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.

Dear David, and Family
What a sad day to check obituaries in Atlantic City, and see my friend Carolyn's name. I am so saddened, to hear of her passing. Please accept my sincere sympathy, knowing that I will keep you in my prayers. We had so many good times at Bell, it was amazing, we laughed so much, it's a wonder we ever got any work done. I will miss knowing that she is not a phone call away. Please stay strong in the Lord, and keep the family together

Dear Drummond Family
In times like these you need an anchor in times like these you need a savior. I pray that God will give your family strength during your time of bereavement. I pray that God will bring peace to your family. I pray that God will continue to sheild you under his wings, and bring loves ones together in harmony. May God Bless you and keep you. I pray that God will give Mr. Drummond the strength to hold on to God's unchanging hand. I pray that God will sustain Mr. Drummond, while he's dealing with the home going of his dear wife. I pray that God will shield Mr.Drummond to carry on with his everyday routine. I pray that God will bring an inner peace to Mr. Drummond's soul. God Bless Love Roe
