Dear Mother as I go through the daily routines of caring for Derrick, 10 yrs now' I'm so remembering how you took all precious time to attend & teach him as much as you could & I see all the works you've done by the way he is' you taught him to care for himself by the way he tries hygiene, & tries to clean up as much as you've taught' him' also tries to wash dishes,& sweep & clean the bathroom. I know that was all (You) cause he was'nt in no program. I recall all the years you kept him close to you & how you made sure he was happy & good.& I remember how you cradled him & how you would hug him. Mama you gave such tender care to your first grandchild you taught him all the things' he knows now' & I see & know about him today. I just need to say to you Thank You again, For I've said it to you times before, I even asked you' how do you do it & you always said cause he's innocent & blameless & you're all he has as his Mother & you said your daughter entrusting you with her first born to care for him, I now know why you asked me to continue fulfilling my sister's final hopes. And to do as best as I can for him,& I am' for the Love I hold onto for you & my (Sister's) sake. Thank you mostly for your (enduring spirit) & undying Love always. I am all alone trying to fulfill this very important (HOPE) Not one helps me Yet' (Jesus) gives me enough daily for the special two, We are soo! BLESSED, Thank You Father' God' for you makes a way out no way, Praises I send (waay) up, PEACE!

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.
