Thinking Of You.......
They say that life is fleeting
I know that this is true
I left this world so quickly
With no goodbye to you.
I know how much you miss me
Your tears fall ever light
The pillow where you lay your head
Is wet with them at night.
I know your heart is hurting
The words we left, unsaid
I love you’s left unspoken
Are spinning in your head.
The strength that I have carried
That served to make you whole
Remains to make you stronger
Within your grieving soul.
For you see, while you were weeping
On the day I passed away
At the gravesite near the flowers
Where my loved ones knelt to pray.
An angel came to see me
She took me by the hand
She led me to a kingdom
In a very distant land.
As I look down from the heaven
And see you standing there
Your heart so ever burdened
With more weight than it can bear.
I long to bring you comfort
I long to give you peace
I long to hold you closely
Cause all your tears to cease.
The joy I’ve found in heaven
Goes far beyond compare
The love that’s so elusive
Can be found here everywhere.
The light is softly shining
There’s no storm clouds here or rain
There’s no teardrops found in heaven
There’s no suffering, there’s no pain.
You needn’t be so troubled
Stay close to God and pray
That someday we’ll be together
One bright and glorious day.
So family, you shouldn’t question
My darlings you need not cry
I’ve gone to be with GRANNY & JESUS
I really didn’t die.
Forever grateful to the Caraway/Carter family for allowing me to be a part of their family and for being able to witness the wonderful life of Kennenth Wayne Caraway, Jr. You all are always in my prayers

Kenneth! You know, I still can't believe you are gone. Of all people man. I miss you a lot, and it hurts even more not getting to say goodbye. You were such a kind person and you always put a smile on my face. I remember back in 9th grade you sat back and were mellow all period when everyone else was loud and getting on the teachers nerves. And last year when you were my foods partner and always disagreed with me just to be stubborn. I am sorry I left you alone in that class, but I am glad we stayed in touch even after I moved. I miss you dearly and I hope that you watch over me. You will never be forgotten. I love ya!

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all consolation, who consoles us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to console those who are in any affliction with the consolation with which we ourselves are consoled by God. For just as the sufferings of Christ are abundant for us, so also our consolation is abundant through Christ.
- 2 Corinthians 1:3-5 (NRSV)

Man Kenneth,
I cant believe your gone...its like a sad story that keeps playing over and over again and im just wandering when its all going to end. Your passing did not have to happen, but I realize that God above all does not make mistakes and he does things for a reason we all will never know. God has given me the privilege of knowing you all the way from elementary to high school and I could not thank him enough for just the presence you bring.....See you at graduation because I know you will be there in spirit...I Love You and make sure you watch over us...
