Randy and Kathy,
Been a very long time since we have spoken but have often thought of your family over the years. I have just heard about Marshall's passing and wanted to tell you how truly sorry I am. Sorry doesn't seem enough or the right thing to say at a time like this. Marshall was a good hearted man. Over the years that I have run into him his heart always seemed to grow bigger. He had a loving soul. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

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.

Deborah, words can't express how sorry I am for your loss. Marshall was a part of our lives here and we will miss him. As always I'm here if you need me. I love you and I will continue to pray for you and your family.

Dear Randy, Kathy and Family
We were so sorry to hear about Marshall's passing away. He was a good boy and was always kind to us and to Mom when she lived in Saluda. Joel and I both know what it is like to lose a precious child and I tell you, it is the hardest thing in the world to face. But, in my heart, I believe Marshall was right with God and that means that when he became absent in his earthly body he was immediately in the presence of God. That is the only comfort we had with Tiffanny. We love you all and will be praying for you. If we can do anything to help you all, please let us know.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Love and sympathy, Chuck and Debbie
