May the road rise up to meet him.
May the wind be always be at his back.
May the sun shine warm upon his face and the rains fall soft upon his fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

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.

To my Dear Sister and Troy's family

With much saddness, you lost a son & brother, while we lost a dear nephew.

Little did we expect he would be taken from us so young.

He will always remain in our hearts, with special memories that we will cherish forever.

We’ll miss him dearly. “It’s always five o’clock somewhere Troy.”

Words can not express the love I have for all of you. I am so sorry I didn't get to come, but my prayers were with each of you. I was thinking back when Troy was born, your Dad called me when they came home from the hospital and said I need help! I went over and we took him to the hospital. That's the only time I can ever remember him being quite. He was so special and I'll never forget the special smile he had for everyone. I love you all!!

My dear little brother was the bravest man I knew. He will always hold a special place in my heart. I will cherish my memories of him forever. He leaves us all with the honor of knowing him. His sense of humor was unparalleled. My dad, "Ben" has one of his boys now. Until I join you brother, Paul

Troy will be deeply missed by all.
