Your gentle face and patient smile
With sadness we recall
You had a kindly word for each
And died beloved by all.
The voice is mute and stilled the heart
That loved us well and true
Ah, bitter was the trial to part
From one so good as you
You are not forgotten loved one
Nor will you ever be
As long as life and memory last
We will remember thee
We miss you now our hearts are sore
As time goes by we miss you more
Your loving smile your gentle face
No one can fill your vacant place

I love and miss your smiling face
Grandma Prescott

Miss you a lot Blake, think of you everyday.

Grandma

July 21, 2012

We held you when you came into this world.
We were so proud and so filled with joy
Your parents had given us, you
Our grandchild baby boy.

We hold you in our hearts now
with sorrow deep
Trying to accept someone so young
has met with eternal sleep

You were such a treasure
as short as your life was
and brought us so much pleasure
as a grandchild does

We will always remember you
From the moment you were born
Until the last breath you drew
Today because we love, we mourn

But honey we hold onto the promise
that we will all be together one day
To live and love forever in paradise
Never to lose you again. We pray

I always picture Blake with his snowboard in our yard with my boys packing snow on our deck to make a snow jump that would drive any mother out of her mind. I hope there's plenty of snow in the new order to get it just right! My heart hurts so much. He will be missed greatly.
