To The Family of Payton Elise Benson
Tear drops run down your face While your loved one takes her place,
In the land of dreams and faith She waits for the day when life will wake,
The sun will rise and the clouds will clear
Her smile will show she is near,
you'll feel her strength when a new day is here
And her heart when it's too hard to bare.
Her love is there whenever you need it All you have to do is believe it.
She may be gone but that doesn't change
because of the way she makes you feel everyday.
When the wind blows by and the trees shake you will hear every word she makes.
No matter where you go
She will be there always willing to show she cares,
She's sitting on her cloud above Watching all of those she loves.

To the parents & family you have my deepest sympathy.
Losing a child is like losing your soul ,You may put on a front for the world but, inside you are dying. No matter what anybody says about grief and about time healing all wounds, the truth is there are certain sorrow that never leave you until your heart stops beating and last breath is taken. But JESUS said 'Let the little children come to me and do not try to stop them for the kingdom of HEAVEN belongs to such as thee'
May GOD'S comfort remain with y 'all R.I.P Little Angel.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. I grew up in that area and it just saddens me to hear what has happened in my neighborhood to such a beautiful little Angel.
