Elaine, When I think of you and Jerry, I think of the many times (back in the day)we spent encouraging each other. Although I am sad that my buddy is only present in spirit , it's comforting to know,he will no longer experience pain,sorrow or sadness. Always REMEMBER , Should you need me (in any way) I am only a phone call away.

Dear Warbington Family:

I was sorry to hear of Jerry's transition. I'm sorry for your loss and any void his demise may cause. However, I am happy for him as I know he is in a better place. I have repeatedly envisioned an ongoing reunion between him, Uncle Jordan, and other relatives & friends who departed this life beforehand. May you find comfort and solace in knowing that Jerry is in a better place and may his soul rest in peace!

Take Good Care - I'm Thinking of Y'all & Wishing Y'all The Best!

GRANDPA,

TEARS STREAMED DOWN MY FACE, WHEN MY MOTHER TOLD ME YOU WENT AWAY.

I KNOW YOU ARE IN A BETTER PLACE BUT THE SELFISHNESS IN ME STILL WANTS YOU TO STAY.

WHEN YOU TRIED TO SAY GOODBYE I SAID NO DON’T BE A HATER

BECAUSE GOODBYES ARE FOREVER SILLY AND I KNEW I WOULD SEE YOU LATER

I NOT ONCE THOUGHT YOUR SICKNESS WOULD COME TO THIS.
I’M LEFT WITH SORROW AND HATE

EVEN THOUGH I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU CAN’T CHANGE YOUR PATH AND CAN’T FIGHT YOUR FATE.

SO I WILL WIPE AWAY MY TEARS AND REMEMBER YOU ARE NO LONGER IN PAIN ITS DONE

BUT I HOPE YOU REMEMBER THAT I LOVE YOU
SINCERELY WARNER WARBINGTON

Aunt Willie Mae and Family,
I imagine that Jerry had this to say upon his arrival...

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.
