If tears could build a stairway, & memories a lane. We would walk right up to Heaven & bring u back again. No farewell words were spoken. No time to say "goodbye".You were gone before we knew it & only God knows why. Our hearts still ache with sadness & secrets tears still flow.What it meant to love you~No one can ever know. But now we know you want me to mourn for you no more.To remember all the happy times life still has much in store. Since you'll never be forgotten We pledge to you today. A hollowed place within our hearts is where you'll always stay.
May God Bless You Tasha. We will forever hold u near.

SAFELY HOME
I am home in Heaven,dear ones;
Oh,so happy and so bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light.
All the pain and grief is over,
Every restess tossing passed;
I am now at peace forever,
Sefely home in Heaven at last.
Did you woner I so Calmly
Trod the valley of shade?
Oh!but Jesus' love illumined
Every dark and fearful glade
And he came Himself to meet me
In that way so hard to Tread;
And with jesus' arm to lean on,
Could I have one doubt or dread?
Then you must not grieve so sorely,
For I love you dearly still:
Try to lookbeyond earth's shadows,
Pray to trust our Father's Will
There is work still waiting for you
So you must not idly stand;
Do it now,while life remaineth-
You shall rest in Jesus' land.
When that work is all completed,
He will gently call you Home;
Oh,the rapture of that meeting,
Oh,the joy to see you come!

In Memory Tasha...
