To my lil cousin Jonathan Raymon. I know that you are at peace and in the loving arms of the Lord and our grandparents. I still remember your smiling lil face from when you were a baby and I used to take care of you. I'm sorry we couldn't be there to pay our respects to you and your mom. Aunt Cici sends her love as does the whole Flemate family. We love you.

The hardest part of any friendship is when it is time to say goodbye. As much as we might like things to stay the same, change is an inevitable part of life. The universe may seem huge and the rift between friends on opposite side of the world may seem a great distance indeed. There are many tools available with which we can communicate such as letters, phones, email etc. Even without these tools, there is a secret that only real friends know, and it is this. All the mountains and valleys in the world cannot separate friends whose hearts are as one.

Years ago, when $150 J's were the rage, those things got stolen ... Like, 'Gimme your shoes, those are good shoes, I want his shoes...!!! ^_^

Rosie, my heart-filled prayers go out to you and your family; Having just lost my 26 yr. old son 5 months ago to a tragic car accident, i can truly emphathize with your pain and sorrow. The short time I worked with you at the law firm, you made a lasting empression on me when I saw how much you did for and loved your sons. I saw how you placed Jon and Jeremy first in all things and you never were discouragd when all the weight was on you to raise them up. There was no circumstance that kept you from being the wonderful mother that you are. Jon's memories will never leave you and he will never be forgotten. His Spirit is near. God Bless You Always, my Sweet Rosie (babycakes).

cassandra,singletary happy birthday

January 25, 2009

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.
