Hello, Im charlene's first grandchild and only grandson. I cant began to tell u how much i miss my grandmother.. With all my heart I loved her and can go on forever about the many ways I feel about this women. To maintain after a lost like this I have to be strong and have nothing but good thoughts that my grandma is in a better place and that one day I will see her again.. Sometimes I still pick up da phone to call her forgetting that she is gone.. Now talking to her will be like taking to God, with no response but I know she hears me... rest in peace to my Grandma, I love her dearly..

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.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Morris family.
Ms. Morris has been a real blessing to me and my family. She was my (voice of reason)... my room mate during band trips... my friend and confidant. Most of all she stepped in and was a great grandmother to my daughter (Arika) when my mom passed. I will always cherish our moments laughing on the phone. She will be missed dearly.
Loving you always.....

60 YEARS OF FRIENDSHIP. IN DEATH IT WILL NOT VANISH. THE CIRCLE WILL NEVER BE BROKEN.
CHARLENE USE TO BABY SIT ME WHEN I STAYED WITH MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER(ANNIE CARTER). I LOOKED UP TO HER. IN THE YEARS WE LOST CONTACT, BUT I NEVER FORGOT HER NOR HER FAMILY.
I TAKE HER LOSS DEEPLY. WORDS CAN NOT EXPRESS THE EMPTINESS THAT IS FELT.

To the family of Past Matron Charlene Morris, first and foremost you have our deepest sympathy and condolences on the passing of your love one and our sister. Charlene was a very special person and with a great smile. She loved her Eastern Star chapter and she was very, very faithful. I do not know if her position in the chapter will ever be fulfilled. We the members of the Mary C. Stewart Chapter # 128 have had some great times together and she will surely be miss. God knows best and we thank him for sending her our way. May God bless you all in mighty way.
