It’s one year today you passed unto glory
One year you slipped out of our hands son…
Hmmm…it’s been painful..and still hurts
Son…no one can fill the void you have left
In our lives ,hearts but in all..we give thanks
Sweet soul you remained
It hurts…it hurts..to realize you are no more
But His grace has been sufficient
Son…we mourn you no more bc you love
In our hearts,in our spirits,on our lips..
Your fond memories…you were a good kid
You brought so much joy, laughter and light …Adieu…Rest on sweet soul…rest on champ….Loads of love always and forever.”
May his soul continue to rest in perfect peace.
Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy
