sorry for your loss

IF TEARS COULD BUILD A STAIRWAY
If stairs could build a stairway.
And memories were a lane.
We could walk right up to heaven,
And bring you back again.
No farewell words were spoken
No time to say good-bye.
You were were gone before we knew it,
And only God knows why.
Our hearts still ache with sadness,
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
No one will ever know.
But now we know you want us,
To mourn with you no more.
Life still has much in store,
Since you'll never be forgotten,
We pledge to you today,
A hallowed place within our heart,
Is where you'll always stay.

Wally thanks for all the memories and fun times at the Welsh Family Reunions. You will be so dearly missed.
Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road
To sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn
some things
But never meant to stay.....
Our destination is a place
Far greater than we know.
For some, the journey's quicker,
For some, the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the Lord.
Love your cousin, Debbie
