In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME.

I saw Chelle for the first time in about 10 years Saturday @ the Glen Lea football homecoming game. Now that I think about it, it was no coincedence! It was meant for me to see her, you see I coached both of her sons Dino & Boo along with her father Lester at Varina in the mid- 90's. We are like family, we hugged and held each other tight when we saw each other. Chelle was a GREAT person, a hard working mother and just all around GOOD person. It was sure nice that GOD bought us together Saturday, before he called her home. Chelle will surely be missed, we all can now saw we have an angel in heaven to watch over us. I will continue to pray for her family and her children.

MUCH LOVE,

Renee Walston-Parks

October 28, 2010

Michelle and I met years ago working with Baker PTA, later we were reunited with Desiree's Cleaning. Regardless of how much time passed without seeing her, when we did by chance run into each other, we hugged and greeted each other as if we had just seen each other the day before. Wherever we would meet, be it the grocery store parking lot, the mall, etc.. we would talk for hours and catch up...that's what friends do.
I can not express my shock of learning about Michelle's passing. My heart is heavy but I know GOD chooses the prettiest flowers for his garden and now Michelle is one of His prized roses in the middle of His garden. My deepest sympathy goes out to the family. Hold on to your memories and know that she will ALWAYS be smiling down upon you and she'll be busy preparing a place for you when she greets you in God's Paradise with a bright smile and a big hug.

To: Co, Uncle Richard, Boo, Dino, Mr & Mrs. Giles. Thank you for sharing your wife, mother and daughter with me.Words can not express the void that is felt. Michelle was a true friend who didn't care if you were broke, what you weighed, what name brand you wore, if your house was a mess, where you live, about your past, or if your family was filled with crazies, she just loved you for who you were. I could not have asked for a better friend and sista. I will miss our talks, and the times we would just get together with the Co and the girls and laugh. You would always keep us laughing, but most of all i will miss seeing you. You were apart of my family from day one. We have laughed and cried together, you have been there for me in my happiest and my saddest times. You have shared in every milestone in my life and for that I thank God for you!. A friendship like yours is irreplaceable. I miss you so much but I know that you are looking down with that big beautiful smile and saying "I made it home safely". Remembering the last time I saw you on Saturday, we laughed and of course we ate(our favorite past time)never knew that would be the last time I would see or speak to you. You left without saying Goodbye, but I know if you could have you would have. God saw fit to call you home. You taught me how to live life and to be happy with what I have. I will always remember you. Thanking God for linking us together. Remebering to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord! We met as friends but depart as SISTAS. RIP MA CHELLE!! I love and miss you girl!
