In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Love Ann

Birthday Rememberance.

There is a heavenly garden
in which God takes great pleasure
Because He's placed within it
The loved ones that we treasure.
He walks among the blossoms
Giving them eternal rest,
And I know that it must please Him
Because He chose our very best.

Today is the 4th of July. It will never be the same again.

Miss you,

Dear Dad,

Memories all gathered
In all the passing years
The tenderness you showed us
The love that was revered

Each day we see you daily
Within our hearts you live
A gentle touch you gave us
These treasures you did give

So though you aren't with us
You're never far away
Your spirit lives forever
In each of us who stay.

Happy Father's Day

Thanks for what you've given
No one could ask for more
May you rest with God in heaven
From now through evermore.

Dear Ann,John, and Jane
Thinking of you and your family on this day and remembering John in so many ways. Whenever Kylyn says a prayer for "her Poppi",and her little face looks up to heaven,whispering" I miss you Poppi",you know that in her mind and heart he will not ever be forgotten. My prayers go out to you at this time.

If I had my life to do over,
I'd have chosen you to be my dad
once more.
Even if it meant losing you again,
It's worth all the tears in the
world.
You were my sunshine when skies
were gray.
I loved you and honored you;
You took all my tears away.
I was happy to be with you,
Proud to be your little girl.
Sometimes we would argue,
But to me you meant the world.
Your love was always pure;
And that had always shown.
Your time seemed all too short and
I feel so alone.
What can I take from this?
My heart is completely crushed.
But nothing loved is ever lost -
And you are loved so much.


Love you always,
Jane

You've passed us by and for the moment we fail to think of you - but then your passing lingers and we pause and ponder of your where abouts.
Fear grips our very being, saddness over powers us, grief strikes at
our heart, emotional pain plays out its' part. Then within our heart a
light shines forth, peace settles over us and severs the moment of
dispair. For yes you've passed us by but you have not left us. It is
but a turning point, just a moment in time until our precious memories
cause us to smile as we think of you and God knows you are thinking of us.

Dear,Ann,Jane,John and family,

When thinking of John I cant help thinking of all the memories. Memories like when we were little and how he would put money under our pillows when we were sleeping,or playing the guitar and singing songs like,we'll sing in the sunshine,I gave my love a cherry.It's because of all the memories he gave us a gift.

My love walks beside me
Each day the whole year through.
He is the light that guides me
In everything I do.

He's with me midst the roses
And with me midst the thorns;
He's with me in the sunshine
And with me in the storm.

In every changing season
His guidance comes my way.
I know he's always with me
Each and every day.

Love Ann

Dear Ann, Jane and John,



When John had pasted, I sat in my chair thinking about all the speical times and thoughts I had through out the years.I remember when I was young I would baby sit for Jane and John. When you and John returned home, John would drive me home. On weekends JOHN would sit in the kitchen and play his guitar for all to hear. He played very well and think he enjoied playing for all. John was a very speical man and he will be missed. I was very lucky to have John as my godfather and I am very proud to be his Godchild. My thoughts are with you all. Love Moe

Dear Ann, John, Jane and other close family members:



There are few words that I can impart that would adequately describe the essence and demeanor of John's personality. His kindness, his sweetness, and his gentleness will always remain with me. Such a gentle giant is not easily forgotten.
