Dear Loved Ones,

We were extremely blessed to have had Aunt Sarah in our lives. She was truly an angel of this earth, who raised seven beautiful children. We will surely miss her smile and gentle way.? Words are little comfort, but know how much she and you are loved at this difficult time.

With a heavy heart, Rick and I will not be able to attend Monday’s service, but know you will be in our thoughts and prayers. Scott will be bringing mom and Aunt Cleda.

Sending love, kisses and hugs,

Loretta and Rick?

No Tears In Heaven …

?No Tears In Heaven?

?They say there are no tears in Heaven,
But that must be wrong today.
Because you took part of my broken heart,
When you went away.
I know my tears must have followed you,
How else can it be?
My Spirit feels broken,
?Cause you are no longer here with me.
I cried to the Heavens, my tears fell like rain.
So, I know my tears must be in Heaven,
Things will never be the same.
They say someday I will accept your passing,
But, right now that can?t be true,
Because part of me is in Heaven,
My tears….. followed you….

Love You Mom – BJ Byrd

To Our Precious Mother …

To Our Precious Mother

We Wish We Could See You One More Time
Come Walking Through Your Door
But, We Know That Is Impossible
We Will Hear Your Voice No More
We Know You Can Feel Our Tears
And You Don?t Want Us To Cry
Yet, Our Heart Is Broken
Because We Can?t Understand Why
Someone So Precious As You Had To Die
We Pray That God Will Give Us Strength
And Somehow Get Us Through
As We Struggle With This Heartache
That Was Caused By Losing You

In Precious Memory Of our Mother Sarah Short
Who Walked Through Heaven’s Gate

I Wanted You To Know …

Dear Sophia/Jim, Bill/Vicki, Jack/Bridget, Willard/Tina, BJ/Bill & Wendell/Becky

I Wanted You To Know……

I Was Sitting Here In Heaven
And Having A Wonderful Day.
I Started Thinking About You
And All The Things I Didn?t Get A Chance To Say.
I Don?t Want You To Worry About Me
And Please Don?t Shed Any Tears,
Because I Will Wait For You In Heaven,
If It Takes A Hundred Years.
Everything I Had On Earth
I Have In Heaven Too!
My First Day Here
My Body Became Brand New.
It Is Really Pretty Here
And I Love My New Home,
Although Your Heart Is Broken
Because My Body Is Gone.
My Love Will Always Be There
As You Go Along The Way,
Just Take A Peek Inside Your Heart
There Is Where I?ll Stay.
Know That I Loved My Family
And All My Friends Too,
My Thoughts Will Be With Each Of You
Your Whole Life Through.
