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.

Amos ~ I am just soooo at a loss for words. Seeing your smile makes my heartache. I had a message saved on my phone from you. Imagine my surprise to hear it... A song for Amos....
"You didn't say goodbye, left to wonder why, you went away so soon; though you had to go, know that we loved you so and know that God still loves you even now.... We still love you.. even now... I still love you, even now" Missing U - Katrina

Amos, You were my best friend. Nobody loved you the way I did. We had so much fun together every single day. I enjoyed every moment I got to spend with you and they will be cherished. I miss your smile and your goofy self. I will never forget the times we had together. Everyday that goes by I still think of you and how much you meant to me.. How much you meant to everybody. You know how you always wanted me to learn how to play Greensleeves on piano?? Well it just so happens that I'm playing it in strings and I will it with all my heart, Just for you. I miss you today, tomorrow, and forever. Your kindess was shared upon everyone, and you will never be forgotten. I love you always

Amos,
Oh my, I have soo many great memories of you..to many to count. I remember meeting you for the first time at Wal-Mart when you were 16, for some reason you would just hang out and talk to the employees, to being hopelessly in love with you, and I remember how we bought one hermit crab to having 6 and we thought they were the kewlest animals ever..to you coming into wal-mart on more than one occasion wearing a pink inflatable pig costume just to make me happy, the way you bit your lip when you were concentrating on something, My dear friend I shall carry you always and forever in my heart, the world is a darker place because your light is not in it. I miss you Amos, Rest in peace and I shall see you soon. Love always

Amos,
I was just going through your Facebook pictures a week or two ago, thinking about how much I missed your goofy outgoing self. I really hope they have internet access in heaven, because surely then you could logon to your Facebook and see just how many people love and miss you dearly and just how many people your life has effected. You were one of my first friends when I moved to Virginia and I will never forget how kind you were and how you always had that great big goofy grin on your face. Always the class clown, always cheering everyone up. We laughed together, had boring classes together, and graduated together, and now I will morn your loss with the rest of the people who were in your life. I am sorry from the bottom of my heart for your family and all of your friends.

A heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others. – Wizard of Oz
To Amos’ Family:
You were truly blessed with an amazing gift! I hope your treasured memories of him act as a band-aid on your heart and comfort you during this time of sadness. May he visit you in your dreams to allow you to smile.
To Amos:
During our short time, we shared tons of laughs and stirred up some mischief from time to time. THANK YOU! And psst...your chicken livers were DE-licious.
I can truly picture you in heaven bouncing from cloud to cloud with a twinkle in your eye and sporting some funky-fun hat that only YOU could bring to life. Perhaps you’re even trying to S-T-I-L-L win a game of backyard laser tag?
It eases the pain imagining you grinning from ear to ear with an enormous amount of joy and excitement in your heart and displaying your playful soul to those around you now. I pray you’re at peace, happy, and wrapped tightly in God’s love.
How lucky am I to have known someone who is so hard to say goodbye to.
FAMOUS you will be remembered and missed by many!
