Pauline , Sabrina husband Benny , Ralph fianc? Rosie, Raymond, Christopher , liz, and his six grandchildren Dominick, Rudy, Angel, Bryanna, Janae, Savannah and Mylah.
A fallen limb has fallen from the family tree
I keep hearing a voice that says, "Grieve not for me
Remember the best times, the laughter, and my words
during
The good life I lived while I was strong.
Continue me heritage, I'm counting on you.
Keep smiling and surely the sun will shine through.
My mind is at ease, my soul is at rest.
Remembering all, how I truly was blessed.
Continue traditions, no matter how small.
Go on with your life, don't worry about falls
I miss you all dearly, so keep up your chin,
Until the time comes we're together again.

I realized how very special you were to mewhen I found out you had gone home to be with Jesus. You left a hole in my heart that will never be filled til I see you in heaven my friend. But I know you are in heaven with Jesus, but you are one we truely miss. By the way you and papa john stay out of trouble up there. But absence from us here on earth means you are in the presence of an awesome God. I will truely miss you.
