Momma and Daddy 2

The Memories of my Daddy!


The Memories of my Dad i will cherish

for the love I have for him will never change
He brought me home when I
was small
in my eyes he stood beside me
smiling at me, saying my beauitful baby girl!
He hasn't stopped saying that till he died!

I
rememeber many long day spent in his office or at home,
he would preach
about God's love. And tell me about the little sayings
in Proverbs, and
things about Paul and Simon. his favorties.

Honesty and Faith he had
without doubt,
church every Sundays and Wednesdays there was no way out!

then for the long afternoon to spend
We'd go visit our dear families or
friends.

Then one day I said "Daddy I want to be a mommy"
He
responded , " I suppose you could do worse",
with his help, encouragement,
and faith in me,
by saying God made me to be deaf and knew I would
be
talent in loving people like daddy does!

Yes, the years went by all too
fast
but these examples of memories will always last
so with this
memorial I hope in some way
that it is to his honor in some small way


Even now I shed those selfish tears,
as I think of the memories from
all those years
My heart is still sad, be as it may
I know I'll be with
him in heaven someday

For God sent this man espcieally to get me
his
perfect plan, as now I see
no person could have ever loved me as much here
on earth
it made no difference if i was not there from birth

For in
his eyes I was his and I felt the same
He made me his when he gave me his
name
For all that I've become and all that I 've had
I owe it all to one
man and that man was my Daddy, and my pastor.
He witnessed the Lord to me
after I told him I was afraid! He said to read these verses
and remind
everyone ! And that he loves every one of us.

"Yea , through I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art
with me;thy rod and for that staff they confort me."
Psalms 23.4


"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotton Son
whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have a everlasting life." John
3:16

Momma and Daddy

was blessed to have my beautiful mother , Gayle for 46 years of my life. She
was diagnosed with lung cancer March 2010 and went to be with Jesus

April 29th, 2010. She was the kind of mother who lived for her
children, grandchildren & whoever needed her. She was loved and is missed
dearly by
everyone who knew her.
Missing Mama!!


I awake each morning to start a new day

But the pain of losing you never goes away.

I go about the things I have to do

And as the hours pass I think again of you.

I want to call you and just see you talk all the good talks

Then I remember that I have no choice

For you are not there and now my heart cries

Just to see you again to tell you goodbye

To say Mama I love you and I always will

And hope that much of you, in me you've taught us so much!

The day that you left I just didn't know

That you were going where I couldn't go.

And now all my memories of you are so dear

But gosh, how I miss you and wish you were here.

Who now can hear me when I need to cry?

It's not fair that I couldn't say Mama,

"I love you"  before she passed.

Someday I know all will be well

And I'll see you again with stories to tell

Of how you were missed and how we have grown

And how good it is to finally be home.

Until then my memories of you I'll keep near

And I'll pass them on to those who are dear.

I miss you Mama, Gayle.

=============================



Every day hurts and in a way I don't think I have
accepted it. Like all of you, it's so hard to believe they are gone.

So many regrets too, what I didn't do or didn't say,
now it's too late. Bless you all, may your memories keep you strong.

I know it's very difficult when your heart is
breaking...



 Momma Gayle,  she died in her sleep. I miss her so much. She was a wonderful
woman.

 I Love you and miss you SO much Mom! Rest in peace!!





I miss you more than these words could ever say

The pain in my heart is from one unimaginable day

After I cried all that I could; my eyes still shed count  less more tears

And when I try to sleep, I have nightmares of ten-thousand fears

I walk in footsteps on an un sure path

My heart feels so heavy I am not sure I will last.



Thank you Momma for your kindness, caring, loving way of taking care of
me!

I love you very much , momma.

Love, Penny
