April 1, 2011

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.

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help at this time.

Bob had been with us for many years when he first joined Dentsply Ceramco in Burlington NJ as an IT expert and later was transferred to York, PA before coming back to Burlington again. We had been very lucky to have Bob and we relied heavily on his expertise in computer technology in order to keep our daily business going. Bob was very friendly and helpful to each individual of us and he was very pleasant to work with.

In the past few years, Bob maintained high spirits to fight the cancer which touched greatly our mind. He remained optimistic and humorous even during his hard time when dealing with his health problem and he never gave up fighting.

Bob was an IT expert, a fighter with true grit, and most of all, a great friend to all of us. Please accept our sincere condolences to Susan and the Scudder family.

My relationship with my dad wasn't always perfect but we were always there for each other. He was such a strong person to me that I could never really be prepared for his passing. One thing about my father is, no matter where we stood, I was always proud of him and even more proud to be his son. There is a void in my heart that will never be filled.
