   A VISITOR FROM HEAVEN ,IF ONLY FOR A WHILE
   A GIFT OF LOVE TO BE RETURNED
   WE THINK OF YOU AND SMILE
   ALL OF A SUDDEN ,YOU WENT AWAY
   WE PRAYED SO EARNESTLY THAT YOU MIGHT STAY
   WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH
   BUT HE WHO LOVES YOU MORE
   THOUGHT IT WAS FIT
   THAT YOU WALK A FAIRER SHORE
   WITH BREAKING HEART'S AND OPEN HANDS
   WITH ACHING HEART'S AND EMPTY ARMS
   WE SENT YOU WITH A NAME
   IT HURT SO MUCH TO LET YOU GO
BUT WE'RE SO GLAD THAT YOU CAME.

PAPA I MISS YOU SO . WHY DID YOU HAVE TO GO?
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, I MISS YOUR HUGS.
   IF YOU WERE STILL HERE I'D BE SO HAPPY.
WHEN YOU LEFT ,A PART OF MY HEART LEFT ME TOO.
   NOW , SOMETIMES RIGHT BEFORE BED,I CRY.
   I KNOW IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT.
    GOD JUST WANTED YOU TO BE WITH HIM.
    IT'S SO BORING HERE WITHOUT YOU.
    BUT, I KNOW YOU'RE HAPPY UP IN HEAVEN.
    NOW YOU'RE WITH SAMANTHA,RUTH,YOUR DAD
     AND EVERYONE ELSE YOU LOST.
     I MISS AND LOVE YOU PAPA!

                                               LOVE,

A FATHER AND HIS CHILDREN
   HAVE A BOND FROM HEART TO HEART
THAT TIME NOR DISTANCE
CAN EVER REALLY PART
IT COMES FROM SHARING MEMORIES
OF HAPPY TIMES TOGETHER
AND THE WARMTH AND UNDERSTANDING
THAT WILL KEEP US CLOSE FOREVER
NO MATTER HOW MUCH TIME AND
DISTANCE COME BETWEEN US DAD
YOU'RE IN OUR THOUGHTS AND IN OUR
HEARTS
YOU'LL ALWAYS BE WITH US.
                         LOVE YOUR CHILDREN
