No one could have asked for a more loving, caring, talented and charitable grandfather than you grandpa. I still think of the last time I saw you and the last hug we shared and how much I miss the tickle of your beard when you would kiss me hello and goodbye. I want you to know that I got the nightstand you made for me right before you passed and I keep it by my bed and cherish it. I think of you everyday and know you will never be forgotten. You are so loved and always will be loved by your family and your friends, which are many because you touched so many lives during you short time here on earth. To the greatest grandpa ever, I love you and I miss you - Jasmine.
Traveling Heart
I still remember the day you died
The snow falling gently,like angel kisses sent down from heaven
To wrap me in their coolness and
Freeze my tears
I never knew, really, how much I truly loved you
Until I lost you...
I always knew you were mine but, now that you're gone
I can't believe how much I miss you
I still cry, even now
As I think of you
And I wish it were winter once again so that
My tears would be too stiff to fall
We buried you in the spring
Commemorating your death as
The world brought forth
New Life, in celebration
There was no snow,
No cold winds,
No slick ice
To halt my sorrows
There was only you and
All who were in existence
Thanks to your life,
The products of your love
I remember how my Aunt, your daughter
Was the only one who personified
The terrible sadness and void
That I felt in my heart
She fell down to your grave
Clinging to your gravestone
Wailing in mourning, Wishing in desperation
To call you out of that terrible grave
I wanted to join her,
Let go of my strength, and succumb to my weakened spirit,
I don't know how Grandma survived when
I felt as if I were barely breathing
You married a good woman,you know that already, but
You would have been so proud, Grandpa
Even half-less, she loved with more love
Than one could contain. Just like you.
She came up to her and I
Placed a gentle hand on each of us and
It was as if a ghost touch lingered
Through the tips of her fingers. Memory of you.
"I want you to know that his death
Was not in vain. They gave his heart to another,
and he lives on, even now.
What a beautiful heart to give.
You can kill a body, But you can never destroy a soul.
Love can withstand all things, even death.
His heart still has a lot of love left to give, and
I know that he still loves us."
I don't know whose being
His heart now pumps through
But I know that it was one of the purest hearts
That ever loved me
So, to whoever you are- Please,
Love stronger than you can bear
Love as many as you can find
If any heart can handle that much love,
Yours can...
-Jasmine C.
As I enter another year without you, I know that you'd be proud of where I am today and my prospects for tomorrow. I miss you each and everyday. And although I wish I had another day to create more memories of us, I take comfort in knowing that you're spending those wishful days with God. Rest In Peace. I miss you Grandpa. Your granddaughter always, Jasmine
If I should go tomorrow
It would never be goodbye,
For I have left my heart with you,
So don't you ever cry.
The love that's deep within me,
Shall reach you from the stars,
You'll feel it from the heavens,
And it will heal the scars.
Don't Weep
Don't weep at my grave,
For I am not there,
I've a date with a butterfly
to dance in the air.
I'll be singing in the sunshine,
Wild and free,
Playing tag with the wind,
Please dont weep for me.
How can i live
What am i to do
Now apart of my heart,
Is buried with you?
by Hannah McCallum (Age 11)in Memory of her Grandmother
Celtic Blessing
May the roads rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rain fall soft upon your fields
And, until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
When I Must Leave You
When I must leave you
for a little while,
Please do not grieve
and shed wild tears
And hug your sorrow
to you through the years,
But start out bravely
with a gallant smile;
And for my sake
and in my name
Live on and do
all the things the same,
Feed not your loneliness
on empty days,
But fill each waking hour
in useful ways,
Reach out your hand
in comfort and in cheer
And I in turn will comfort you
and hold you near;
And never, never
be afraid to die,
For I am waiting
for you in the sky!
-Helen Steiner Rice
