If Roses Grew In Heaven
If Roses grow in Heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me,
Place them in my niece Meleny's arms and tell her they're from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile.
Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day,
but there's an ache within my heart that will never go away.
When Tomorrow Starts Without Me
When tomorrow starts without me and I'm not here to see...
If the sun should rise and find your eyes filled with tears for me,
I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today...
While thinking of the many things we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me, as much as I love you...
And each time you think of me, I know you'll miss me, too.
But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand...
That Jesus came and called my name and took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready in heaven far above...
And that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love.
So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart...
For every time you think of me, I'm right here in your heart.

"A child who loses a parent is an 'orphan.' A man who loses his wife
is a 'widower.' A woman who loses her husband is a 'widow.' There is no
name for a parent who loses a child, for there is no word to describe the pain."

Treasured Memories
We know a smile we'd love to see, a hand we'd love to touch
We know a voice we'd love to hear, a face we love so much
As time goes by without you and days turn into years
They hold a thousand memories and a thousand silent tears
We think of you with love today, but that is nothing new
We thought about you yesterday and the day before that too
We will think of you tomorrow and will our whole lives through
For the day we fail to think of you, is the day we'll be with you

My Darling Jacob and Meleny,
May perpetual light shine upon you both and may you be resting together
in peace in Thy Heavenly Kingdom with our Lord. Forever in our hearts!
Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love
of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.

An Angel kissed my tears away today, when I was feeling sad
I wasn't feeling quite myself, my day had been so bad
I felt a warmth brush by me that quickly dried my tears
A gentle, kind, and loving touch that seemed to hold me near
Immediately I felt so much better and the day seem brighter too
I guess that's just the way you feel when an Angel comforts you. ~Author Unknown~
I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death.
They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make.
Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories.
We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been
enriched by having shared their love.
