Remember

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

Dear Michael and family,

I am so very sorry to learn of your loss. She was very special to our family and especially to our Daddy. I will always remember that she paid us the honor of singing at his depature. It was just as he would have wanted it. I bet she is singing up there now! May God bless you and keep you in the days to come.

Aunt Yvonne touched so many lives, especially mine. She cherished her family and she loved us dearly. Michael and Mama (Cathy) God will give you the strength that you need to get through the days, weeks, and months ahead. She has found the "sweet peace" that she longed for. We have many memories to keep her alive.

We are thankful and grateful that she loved us, but we can be at peace knowing that she loved the Lord!!!




God Bless

Yvonne will remain in our hearts forever.
