Hey mama its me again! Is paw paw up there with you? He left exactly a year after you. I guess God is getting his army ready. I pray that the Lord blesses me because I get so bitter ,frustrated and angry sometimes because you are not here. There is a lot that I dont understand. Why so soon? Why so much regret I guess that is a way of punishment?? I dont know I just hope your happy! Dont worry about Janet Im sure you know the Lord is working on her. I call your work number sometimes just to see what recording they have on there.Do you get to talk to grandmama? I have so many questions that I feel are unanswered and I just pray that the Lord helps us all understand.Well I love you sweetie!!

It has been a year and it doesnt even seem like it. I can remember every little detail just like it was yesterday. It still is hard and the pain gets a little better day by day.No one will ever an can never compare to you!! There is so much that I regret but cant do anything about it now . You have a little dark granbaby now and his name is Jack the third and him is beautiful!!! I miss you so much .Sometimes I wonder if you really can see all of us now.I think the reason God took you is so that we could come closer to him because now he is all we got! Any way I guess I will never truly know and understand but they say he doesnt make mistakes! Ilove you so much your preety baby!!

"Into thine hand I commit my spirit; thou have redeemed me, O Lord God of truth...Psalms31:5 "Because I will do this unto you, prepare to meet thy God..."Amos 4:12. God in His wisdom, His power and His love, have spoken to us again. We recognize His voice and humbly submit to His will. Our life is a gift from God-what we do with our life is our Gift back to Him-Life is fragile we must handle it with care and with prayers. We must fulfill life's goals with positive and righteous living. After we have finished our race or work we are summoned and returned to our maker-the giver of our life. Living is more serious than dying. Living is a journey of mountains, valleys, disappointments, sickness, heartaches and heart breaks-therefore we need God to continuely walk with us, guide us and hold us along this tedious journey. when we allow God to direct our paths in this life-then death leads us into a more abundant life. We the Greater Harvest Church family thank God for the blessed previledge He has given us to share the life of Daisy "Faye" Buckley. We knew Faye as a studious, hard working wife,and mother who loved her children/family dearly. She was faithful to her jobs-(before getting drivers license and a car she would catch the bus in inclimate weather to go to work)When she attended this Church-she was picked up at home for weekly services and brought her 3 children with her. Faye was not a commentor on every subject, but was a good listener with a teachable, humble spirit, easily entreated and had a hearty, healthy laugh. We express and show our genuine love and sincere prayers to this family, her children:Jack Jr., Jennifer, Janet and her grandchildren Jaylon and Ja"Vaughn, her friends and family. We reccommend to you Jesus, who is the comfort of life, the peace of our minds and the true love in our life.

Dear Jack, Jennifer, and Janet:
I am very sorry to hear about the loss of your Mother. Our families have known each other for a long time, and I express my condolences and heartfelt sympathy. Sometimes things happen in life that we may not understand but keep the FAITH and know that God has it all in control. I remember Sis. Buckley at church (Greater Harvest) being very kind to everyone with a bright smile. I am praying for you all and John 14:1 & 18 says let not your heart be troubled, believe in God, also in me believe, I will not leave you bereaved, I come unto you.

To Fay's Children(Jack, Jennifer, and Janet)
I worked with Fay many years at the Corps of Engineers. She was such a sweet, caring person. I regret I was unable to attend her funeral. I know you will miss her. but she has gone to her heavenly reward. We must make sure we will meet her there. Janet, I hope you like your name because I helped Fay decide on "Janet". I thought it was such a pretty name. Please remain strong in your Christian faith so we can meet sweet Fay in heaven. God bless and keep you.

To the Buckley family,
I am so sorry to hear about Daisy you all are in our prayers.I was a classmate of Daisy, and I seen her once or twice since we graduated, But she was a beautiful person then and I know she was still the same when I seen her again, So you all keep your head up and you all will see your mother again.

To Jack, Jennifer and Janet; Many things that happen in this life, we will never understand and death is one of those things. Death is so unfair and when ever it comes it is never the "RIGHT" time. But remember that NO matter what happens to us God said that He will "never leave us or forsake us". He really does care about us. It's at times like these that we feel all alone; but remember the footsteps that you are now seeing in the sand are not yours; they belong to God. The shadow that you see is not yours; but God's. It is at times like these that He is carrying us: We are not alone!!! I Love each one of you and hope to see you real soon. Love from Sis. Lynn Jones @ Greater Harvest Church.

Fay chose the road less traveled and because of that she was always happy and smiling. I will carry her in my heart forever. Her family has my deepest sympathy.

The 23rd Psalms - The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: for thou art with me;
thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:
thou anointest my head with oil;
my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever. Amen.

To Fay's Family,
I am sending you my heartfelt sympathy for your loss. Fay was a beautiful, kind and gentle lady. I visited with her just before her illness and she was happy and uplifted as always. She had the ability to make you feel better when you were down. She will be greatly missed by many of us in the Federal Building, but we know she is in a better place and is watching over all of us now. God Bless all of you.
