Losing people you love is hard, but to think about just how much you're missed years later is even harder. My dad asked a few weeks ago if anyone was left in your family. I sadly said that your step daughter was the only one left and that I haven't seen her for years. I still miss you antics. Love you

Uncle Paul will be missed greatly. I remember when I was little when Aunt Terry use to babysit me and Mary.....he would mess with me, and tell me to lick his feet, lol. He was such a nice, funny, crazy guy. He will always be in my heart forever.

Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow;
I am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain;
I am the gentle autumn's rain.

When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush,
of quiet birds in circled in flight.

I am the soft star that shines at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there; I did not die.

To the Family of Paul-
>Lord make me an instrument of Thy peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where the is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. Where there is sadness, joy.
-Prayer of Saint Francis Of Assisi

It is in Dying that we are born into eternal life.

An Angel Taken
God gave us an angel
To have for awhile.
An angel who always
carried a smile.

Borrow this angel
is all we could do.
Every minute was precious
But the minutes were to few.

This angel was dear to
the ones who he loved.
just know he'll be watching you
all from above.

Because the gates of heaven
opened today .
and when they closed
they took you away.

Our time with you
has come to an end.
Just remember,one day
we will all meet again.
Camilla Chesshir
I wrote this for you today. Love you all
Camilla

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.
