There's a place I've never seen beyond this world we know.
A place I've only heard of but someday hope to go -
It's not on any map, there are no roads to take me there.
But it's a place of perfect peace where hearts are free from care.
And though I understand some may be saddened when I leave,
One day, we all will meet again - thats what I beleive...
When it's time to travel there, I...

FATHER GOD, THANK YOU for letting me share lo these many years with a wonderful loving brother, My brother, JOHNNIE CRUMB. Words fail me now as I try to convey to you just how much I loved and will miss him. Great comfort comes in the realization that he is at home now with the LORD and his parents, two brothers, and two sisters and a beautiful baby daughter. He is greatly LOVED and will be greatly missed by all who knew him, especially his devoted and wonderful wife, Josephine. My...

Jo our Thoughts and Prayers are with you and the kids and the grandkids at this time of loss.
We pray for God to give you the strength and comfort your hearts need to get you through this troubling time. We have always thought so much of you both and what good people you are and have been to Karen over the years.
We have always said that our grandkids has kept him going because when they were moved back to Tenn, Johnnie called wanting them to come back, he couldn't stand it without...

How do you say goodbye to a man that was not just THE BEST Father-in-Law a daughter-in-law could have but over the past 20 years became my second Dad. Johhnie Crumb has been part of my life since I was 15 years old and I am so glad that I had him in my life.
He has been the greatest Papaw to the kids and always has. Johnnie always told Jo that he would claim me and that I was his favorite but to hear him say that or to say I was his daughter became an honor, because I was so scared of the...

my papaw meant the world to me and theres no doubt in my mind that hes in heaven smiling down on me. i never thought that it would actually be THIS HARD for me but i guess you never realize how hard it is until you lose someone you LOVE SO MUCH and you realize all the good times you have had with them are all over and all you have left are your memories of them. but i guess that its a good thing that i have a lot of memories of my grandfather, after all i was the lucky one, i was the oldest...

The Lord decided it was your time to go home, but you live forever within our hearts... We will miss you, Uncle Johnnie.

The Little “Sojer”

No more sunshine,
No more rain,
No more sadness,
No more pain.
Mama’s little “sojer” went home…

No more worries,
No more stress,
Cause now he’s resting with the blest.
Mama’s little “sojer” went home…

He fought the good fight to stay here;
His strength of body grew weak.
We had to tell you to go on home –
Although we knew out hearts would break.

He left us all in sadness,
But at Heaven’s Gate greeted with...

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

"He only takes the Best"

God saw he was getting tired
and a cure was not to be.
So He put his arms around him
and whispered, "come with me".

With tear filled eyes we watched him
suffer and fade away.
Although we loved him deeply
we could not make him stay.

A golden heart stopped beating,
hard working hands put to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the BEST.

I LOVE YOU DADDY
Daddy's Girl
