Each morning when we awake
we know that you are gone,
and know one knows the Heartache
as we try to carry on.
Our Hearts still ache with sadness
and many tears still flow,
what it meant to loose you
no one will ever know.
Our thoughts are always with you
your place no one can fill,
in life we loved you dearly,
in Death we love you still.
There will always be a Heartache
and often a silent tear,
but always a precious memory
of the days when you were here.
Love julie your NO1 Fan xxxxxx
an amazing man xx
The Angels Sang Amazing Grace.
The Angels sang Amazing Grace,
the LORD came down and touched your face,
He held your hand and whispered low,
come with ME it's time to go
The Gates of Heaven opened wide,
the Angels lined up side by side,
a special guest was on his way,
the day they came and took you away.

`•. Dear Angel........
If we could only speak to you,
And hold your loving hand,
No matter what we said or did,
We know you'd understand.
Memory is a lovely lane,
Where hearts are ever true,
A lane we so often travel down,
Because it leads to you.
Sadly missed along life's way,
Quietly remembered every day,
No longer in our lives to share,
But in our hearts you're always there.
Your presence we miss,
Your memory we treasure,
Loving you always,
Forgetting you never.
All Our Love Now And Always
