My Grandpa, My best friend. I love you so much. Me and you were so close we just talked about everything and anything. Ya when i lived with you we had are ups and downs but no matter what you were always there. I could call you for anything . you would stop what your doin and come pick me up when i needed to get away. We workd on alot of things together. Ive learned alot from you not just on how to do things but on how to live life. I loved going out and play football in the yard with me even though you never really cared to. Im so happy you got to see me play football for my last year. The memories will always be great and never forgotten. You are my best friend. I no you will watch over me and the rest of the family. I will make you proud. I love you so much you are the best. Ill miss you. Goodbye for now.

Dad, we never had the typical father son relationship, I was almost a grown man when we met and even though we never saw eye to eye on most things. I will miss you and through my nephews I've learned that you meant everything to them, I can only hope when my time comes to be a grandfather that I can influence my grandchildrens life as much as you have influenced mine and the rest of your family. You will forever be remembered and missed.

Joey, When we were kids you were always my protector as I look back at the old pictures you were always there with me holding my hand or hugging me. Now you hold God's hand but I will always feel your hand on my shoulder. There was always a different connection between you and me that lasted all these years. No matter what it was still there. When we last talked you told me you loved me and I told you I loved you too. Little did we know that it would be our last talk but I will treasure it always. Until we meet again. I love you. Sis

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.
