Remember Me



Remember me mommy when your heart aches

That I am now through heaven's gates.



Remember me daddy when your tears flow

That I am surrounded by the Angel's glow.



Remember me parents when your day is bad

That I am with God, completely healthy and glad.



Remember me grandparents when you long for me

That I am in Heaven's playground as safe as can be.



Remember me aunts and uncles for I know your names

And when you reach heaven we can play all those fun games.



Remember me my loved ones and always hold me dear

Please don't forget I am in heaven and that you should not fear.



God has his little angels he takes them at his will

But he does not erase the pain that all the parents feel.



When you reach Heaven and feel the tug of your hand

It will be your Grayson Jade helping you tour Heaven's land.



Ashley, Kevin and Family:



My heart goes out to all of you. You are in my prayers daily and I pray for God to give you the same strength he bestowed upon Grant and myself during the same heartache and loss. I am here for you in whatever need you may have.

Hello Ashley,



I just wanted to tell you that I have added you and your husband to our prayer list at church. I work with you but you probably do not really know me. I work in the Central Office in the payroll department. My heart really goes out to you and your husband but God said he would not put more on us than we can bear. Sometimes it doesn't seem fair the decisions that God makes but he sees further into the future and he makes no mistakes. God loves us all and he will make you stronger through this trial and he always makes a trial turn into a blessing. God will give you added strength and let him be the wind beneath your wings and let him lead, guide and direct you. If you need anything, please feel free to contact me. I will continue to pray for you daily and just want you to know someone does care for you. God Bless you and your family.
