We Miss You!!!!!

In Loving memory of Jeff 7/16/07
When Tomorrow Starts Without Me

When tomorrow starts without me,And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All 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 that you think of me,I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,Please try to understand,That an angel 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 behindAll those I dearly love.But as I turned to walk away,A tear fell from my eyeFor all my life, I'd always thought,I didn't want to die.I had so much to live for,So much left yet to do,It almost seemed impossibleThat I was leaving you.I thought of all the yesterdays,The good ones and the bad,I thought of all the love we shared,And all the fun we had.If I could relive yesterday,Just even for a while,I'd say good-bye and kiss youAnd maybe see you smile.But then I fully realized,That this could never be,For emptiness and memories,Would take the place of me.And when I thought of worldly things,I might miss come tomorrow,I thought of you, and when I did,My heart was filled with sorrow.But when I walked through heaven's gates,I felt so much at home.When God looked down and smiled at me,From His great golden throne,He said, "This is eternity,And all I've promised you.Today your life on earth is past,But here life starts anew.I promise no tomorrow,But today will always last,And since each day's the same wayThere's no longing for the past.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.

Hey Katressa! Glad you joined us! Evidently the technology is a lot more advanced at CRH than it was when I was there because I don't remember them even having internet connection. LOL Of course, I left 10 years ago and I don't think it was all the rage it is today. I've thought about you often! I will pray that this stuff gets resolved quickly!
