I wish Heaven had a phone so I could hear your voice again. I thought of you today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, from which I'll never par...t... God has you in his arms. I have you in my heart.
Love Always,
Angela

"God saw you were getting tired And a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you And whispered " Come to Me" with tearful eyes we watched you And saw you pass away Although we loved you dearly We could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating Hard working hands at rest God broke our hearts to prove to u...s He only takes the best." I always loved you and i will always miss you Grandpa...xoxo ? ?
