Uncle Roy- R.I.P. April 14th, 2010

People gather, church bells ring,

Waiting for what today will bring.

Tears and sorrow on my face,

While he is happy in his place.

Family and friends gather ‘round,

His body safe in the ground.

“He is not here, but hasn’t left,”

I said as I wept.

There is no more pain or any sadness,

For now he is filled with love and gladness.

He was like a big teddy bear,

And we love to show him that we care.

To you now and forever,

We sit here and remember.

Memories fill our minds,

Just because you were so kind.

God in heaven let him know,

That I love him forever so.

He is in eternal peace,

As I will always be his niece.
