You walked with us many happy, exciting miles.

We remember your expressions and sweet smiles.

Though you have passed from our view

Where we can no longer speak to you,

Events shared with you live in our memory

Like frames of a favorite old movie.

When we see your picture, or hear your name,

School days, together, play over again just the same.

I ONLY WANTED YOU

BY Vicky Holder

They say memories are golden,

Well, maybe this is true.

I never wanted memories,

I only wanted you.

A million times I needed you,

a million times I cried.

If love alone could have saved you,

You never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,

In death I love you still.

Inside my heart you hold a place,

no one could ever fill.

If tears could build a stairway,

and heartache make a lane,

I'd walk the path to heaven,

and bring you home again.

Our family chain is broken,

and nothing seems the same,

But as God calls us one by one,

the chain will link again.
