For Us

You don't have to say I'm sorry, one day you'll understand.
I heard the Lord whisper in my ear. I reached up and grabbed His hand.

My journey here on earth was done. The time for me had come.
My rest in Glory has now begun. I finally made it home!

Remember all of the love we have, it will NEVER fade away.
Hold it near to you, don't let it go, it will carry you through the day.

Share the love with friends held close, they're here to see you through.
Let them hug you tight with care, let them comfort you.

Cry if you must but not too long. Time will ease this pain.
Hold on to God's unchanging hand, we'll see each other again.

For this time that we are far apart, is only for a while.
I'll be standing here at Heaven's gate, to greet you with a smile...

From Grandmama

I was blessed with knowing Miss Emma when I worked at Mervyn's, she was a very special person you truly enjoyed being in her company. May The Lord gave Miss Emma's family the strength and comfort knowing she is at peace.

I knew the lovely Miss Emma from working alongside her at Mervyn's many years ago. I will always remember her for her kindness and her smile. Rest in peace sweet lady.

Oh Ms Emma I can remember to this day I first had the privilege of meeting you at Meryvens. So many years ago. How you helped me when I was hired and moved up in the company. How hard you always worked for me in our department always with a smile!!
You will always be in my heart my dear friend. 
Rest in Paraidise my love. We will see each other again!

Dear Velma,
I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom. I know she was a super special lady to have raised an amazing daughter like you. God Bless you all and my the many happy memories heal your hurting hearts. May she rest in peace.

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.

Deepest condolences to the Montgomery Family on the loss of your mom/grandma. She was such a sweet, sweet lady. 
I remember the look she use to give me when I would stop by the house and she hadn't received an updated picture of the family. It was the "You're in trouble" look. And then she would give me a hug.
God Bless you all during this difficult time!

With Love,
Ellie, Jose,Leilani, Cheyenne, Mikayla & Kristian
