Margie,
When I met you, I met your Sons, too, as little bitty babies.
We all came together in church & grew in GOD’s grace together there.
Life has a way of making us feel down~trodden, & we feel like we are drowning, but oh, we know SOMEBODY & HIS NAME IS JESUS; a name above all names who will Lift us up on higher ground, & not let the river waters drown us nor allow us to be burnt in the fires!
We shall be as pure gold!
Bless you & your family my Sister! Stay strong, & stand steady in the Power of GOD’s might, & be encouraged.
No matter!
..but GOD!
Allow the HOLY SPIRIT to comfort you & just know that everything will be alright.
Peace be still!
Love you my Sister!

It feels like it's been forever,
since I've seen your face.
I miss you so much,
in my heart you will always hold a special place.
All the good times we've shared,
the memories we've made.
Every day I think about them all,
From my mind they will never fade.
How I wish we could walk arm in arm, hand in hand, heart to heart.
If I would've known that it would end like this,
I thought we'd never have to be apart.
You were always the light at the end of my storm.
the star in my sky.
You were a blessing,
you were perfect in my eye.
So many questions I still have to ask,
my best friend gone.
Why?
You were too young to go,
it didn't have to be like this, you didn't have to die.
From now until the end of my life you will be on my mind,
every minute,
every hour,
every day.
I love you,
I miss you,
and this is how it will stay...
It’s NEVER a goodbye but I’ll see you later your FOREVER alive in my heart until we are together again I love you bro bro thank you for loving me perfectly -
