In Loving Memory Of A Mother, Grandmother, Great-Grandmother and Great-Great Grandmother.
You may not be with us here on earth but your Forever In Our HeartsFollowing a short illness her life was taken away unexpectedly. My grandmother was my life, She was like a mother to me. You wouldn't believe my grief. After the initial shock of her deathI have never felt so alone or helpless in my life.She wasnt alone when she died .We Believe her son and daughter was thier also.We could not see them.I'm sure she could. I've come to realize that she is no longer in pain anymore and there is no more suffering. Although it still hurts and will for a long time I know that she is where she wants to be now, with my grandfather, her sister, and also her son and daughterThat is the only thing that keeps me going.Looking at her in death she quite resembled a porcelain doll. so beautiful, fragile, and special. Her tiny little hands and beautiful high cheekbones. I wasn't with her when she took her last breath.She looked so at peace and she left knowing we all loved her so dearly. Everyone had a chance to spend a few moments alone with her before the death and say whatever we wanted to say to her. I told her that I love her I said more but that day was blure to me .Sitting at the funeral, it just felt so strange not having her sitting beside me rattling peppermint candy papers or whatever candy she had and offering them to me. There Isnt a day that goes by that I dont wonder what she is doing or think of her.I kinda vision her sanging in the angel choir.I know she is watching over all of us.She is Still laughing,and enjoying life just as she always have.the most hard part was seeing her at the funeral home.My granny which is my great grandmother daughter fixed her hair that day.She looked like she was taking one of her cat naps she calls.I was hoping she would raise yp and say hey lets go home but that wasnt the case.I've came to realize that she was gone and she wasnt comming back Before we left to go home we kissed and told her we loved her and that we will be back later 5:30pm we was back at the funeral home.I dont remember much about the funeral home.the only thing I remember was someone was sanging home I think that was the name of the song.On the way to her resting place I heard Vince Gill Go rest .I just Broke down.I will hold every memory of my granny in my heart.I know I will see her again
God wont you please kiss my granny good night
Go rest now Granny, Your sister and son and daughter and all the Angels are waiting for you.
They have prepared a new home for you where there will be No Worries,
No pain, No Anger, No Tears.........................................
Untill we meet again in Heaven's Arms Remember always We Love you.
Forever In My Heart your Great Great Granddaughter
One Little Candle
I lit a candle tonight, in honor of you
Remembering your life, and all the times we'd been through.
Such a small little light the candle made
Until I realized how much in darkness it lit the way.
All the tears I've cried in all my grief and pain
What a garden they grew, watered with human rain.
I sometimes can't see beyond the moment, in hopeless
despair. But then your memory sustains me, in heartaches repair.
I can wait for the tomorrow, when my sorrows ease
Until then I'll light this candle, and let my memories run free.

Don't think of her as gone away, her journey's just begun
life holds so many facets this earth is only one.
Just think of her as resting, from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days and years.
Think how she must be wishing that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness can really pass away.
And think of her as living in the hearts of those she touched
for nothing loved is ever lost and she was loved so much
EVERYONE HAS TOLD US YOU'VE GONE TO A BETTER PLACE,
BUT STILL WE MISS YOU.
YOUR SMILE,
YOUR LAUGH,
YOUR FACE. WE TRY TO REMEMBER ALL THE GOOD TIMES WE SHARED,
HOW MUCH YOU LOVED AND CARED.
I DOUBT THERE WILL BE A DAY THAT GOES BY, THAT WE WILL NOT THINK OF YOU AND WONDER WHY.
WHY IT HAD TO BE YOU WHO WAS TAKEN AWAY,
WHEN WE WOULD HAVE TAKEN YOUR PLACE ANY DAY.
IT SEEMS SO LONELY SINCE YOU'VE BEEN GONE,
BUT WE UNDERSTAND THAT YOU'VE GONE HOME.
WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU WITH LOVING GRACE, AND THINK OF YOU WITH A SMILING FACE.
I KNOW YOU ARE IN HEAVEN RIGHT NOW SMILING DOWN, SO WE WILL TRY OUR BEST TO LAUGH AND NOT FROWN.
I'M SAD I WASN'T ABLE TO SAY
"I LOVE YOU" AND "GOODBYE"
EVEN IF YOU WERE UNABLE TO HEAR MY FINAL CRY. I'LL THINK OF YOU WHEN I AM FEELING LONELY AND DEPRESSED AND MY TEARS WILL BE LAID TO REST . MAY YOU ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART, TILL THE END BECAUSE YOU WERE THERE FROM THE START
You have inspired us in every aspect of our lives through your courage and strength. You were the best Grandmother anyone could have.
You loved us, supported us and looked out for us, with a heart of gold you loved us all.
You sure made your mark in this world, and it will continue.
You will never be forgotten.
God closed your eyes and took your hand, and left us to try and understand.
Others were taken this we know, but you were ours and we loved you so.
You will be in our thoughts every day, and in our hearts you will always stay
AND GOD SAID....
I said, "God, I hurt."
And God said, "I know."
I said, "God, I cry a lot."
And God said, "That is why I gave you tears."
I said, "God, I am so depressed."
And God said, "That is why I gave you Sunshine."
I said, "God, life is so hard."
And God said, "That is why I gave you loved ones."
I said, "God, my loved one died."
And God said, "So did mine."
I said, "God, it is such a loss."
And God said," I saw mine nailed to a cross."
I said, "God, but your loved one lives."
And God said, "So does yours."
I said, "God, where is she now?"
And God said, "Mine is on My right and yours is in the Light."
I said, "God, it hurts."
And God said, I know............"

This candle will Always burn Bright
For you granny
You never said I'm leaving
You never said goodbye
You were gone before I knew it
And only God knew why
A million times I've needed you
A million times I've cried
If love alone could have saved you
You never would have died
In life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still
In my heart you hold a place
Noone could ever fill
It broke my heart to lose you
But you didn't go alone
For part of me went with you
The day God took you home.

When loving someone
it's hard setting them free,
the worse part is letting go.
