We just never know when God is going to take us. i am one of those people that don't understand but i guess we are not suppose to . I became friends with the family about 11 yrs ago with ole . and this year was one of the best . i even met the beautiful aunt dorothy,the children,there grandchildren. rich had a great sense of humor but i don't think i would like to be on his bad side. lol. i have gotten to know his wife dottie (just joking)annie and what a friend she is also no wonder her and rich stayed together. she shared with me pictures of them that they saved by the fire. what a couple they were and will be again someday. Live each day as it was your last. loving memories ole and cherie

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.

I remember when Ann and Rich moved in thier house on Ave O as a young teenager Rich took me under his wings tought me many things in life I remember when his children were born and how proud he was of them . Rich taught me how to shoot pool and we played every weekend or we would go out in one of his boats. Rich was a good friend and even thou our lifes went different ways as we got older on the times we would run into each other it was a great feeling to have Rich as a friend.Rich will be missed by many he touched the hearts of alot of people I'm honored to have Rich as a friend and at the time in my life to have a great teacher of life . Thankyou Rich your friend forever Scott Jones
