My Last Request Our Dearest Tre` PALLBEARERS FLOWER

My Last Request
Please don’t say how good I was,
But that I did my best..
Just say I tried to do what’s right,
To give the most I could not do less.
Please don’t give me wings or halos,
that’s for God to do,
I want no more than I deserve,
no extras, just my due.
Please don’t be angry, or talk in harsh tones,
Don’t be concerned about me now.
Our Dearest Tre’
God looked around his garden
And found an empty space,
Then looked down upon the earth and saw your handsome face
God’s garden must be beautiful.
He only has the best.
He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
He knew you were saved.
And ready to stand the test
We all loved you but he loved you best.
It broke our heart to lose you,
But you did not go alone.
For part of us went with you
The time he called you home.
CELEBRATION OF THE LIFE
OF
CHARLES EDWARD JONES, III
TRE’
I’m well with God; I’ve made it home.
Don’t talk about what could have been,
Its over and it’s done.
Just see to all my family’s needs,
The battle has been won.
When you draw a picture of me,
Don’t draw me as a saint,
I’ve done some good; I’ve done some wrong,
So, use all your paint

Not just the bright and light tones, use some gray and dark.
In fact, don’t put me down on canvas,
paint me in your heart.
Don’t just remember all the good times,
but remember some bad, as well
For life’s full of many things,
Some happy and some sad.
But, if you must do something
Then I have One Last Request ……..
Forgive me for the wrongs I’ve done,
And with the love that’s left,
Thank GOD for my soul’s resting,
Thank GOD for all who loved me.
Praise God who loved me best.

I’m Free
Don’t grieve for me, for I am free
I followed the path God laid for me.
Perhaps my time has seemed all too brief.
Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your hearts and know that I’m with God.
God wanted me now; He set me free.
