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.

To Aunt Mattie and all of the Tate family,
It is a blessing to be able to fondly remember people who touched our lives in childhood and beyond. Rozella and each child in her family bring sweet memories to mind. I recall her loving smile and gentle manner.
With our father, Douglas, and his brother, Columbus, we were able to know extended relatives on our Georgia side of the family. I remember always feeling like the Tate family made you feel good and welcomed every time we visited! Thank you for the memories, and thank God that you are family.
In peace and comfort,
Tutti and Johnson family (Carrie, Pat, Sandra, and Bayboy)

Condolences to the Tate Family
I'm so sorry for your loss, losing a mother or father is no a easy process to get over and there's no words to comfort you at anytime, but to let you know God has the higher power over all and he'll give you time to think of great memories your mom left each one of you. She'll always be with you in your ❤ until you meet again. Prayers are ordered for you all. RIH Ms. Tate..
