Lewis FUNERAL DIRECTORS OF JACKSON MEMORIAL IN CHARGE RECESSIONAL What would I give to clap your hand. Your happy face . To see those chunky cheeks and the dimples just like you gave me. To hear your voice tell me there’s nobody in this world that loves you more than me. I’ll try not to cry and to hold my head high because strong is what I know you expect me to be. Like you already know I love you Daddy And I’ll love you for eternity. “Ya Heard Me” Love, Your First Born, Melissa My dad was pretty outspoken person. He liked to have fun and of course ride motorcycles. I will never forget the day he taught me how to ride my first dirt bike. Not only did he teach me how to ride, he bought me my own. I have had a love for them every since. He did a lot for me honestly that I’m truly grateful for. As I got older we had our ups and downs like any son and father would have, but that was still my dad and I will never forget him. If I could see him one more time I would just tell him that I love him. Love, Jordan My Brother, my friend, my ride or die.I guess this was the only thing that could separate us. I’m gonna miss my phone ringing with you asking me “What It Do?” When you know that I’m wide open at work. Words can’t explain what we’ve been through in this life. We both played to win and had each other’s back right or wrong…. But you knew that I was gonna tell you about the wrong and you appreciate me being 100. Losing you is like losing your breath. You always asked me “Cat, what you gonna do when I’m gone” I always responded, “I don’t know Cat.” You always told folks… “That’s B, that’s my lil brother, we just alike.” I use to laugh because that was so far from the truth; Cause you were one of a kind, whatever came up, came out like it or not! I thank the Lord for him giving you to us this long, which, if you are born of this flesh, you are on borrowed time. The Lord doesn’t make mistakes. I know you are my angel looking down and guiding me in the right path, out of harms way. “Til the world blow, fly high, spread your wings. I love you dog. “ “Ya Heard Me” Love, JB My father is a man like no other. He loved me for what I was and accepted me for who I was, striving to become. He gave me life, nurtured me, taught me, fought for me, held me, shouted me, but most importantly loved me unconditionally. As the world went around, we had ups, we had downs, then also we had smiles and we had frowns. He dressed me as if I were his twin, where no one else could not see within. My dad was no ordinary man. There are not enough words I can say to describe just how important my father was to me, and what a powerful influence he continues to be. Now that you are in heaven, Dad I know that you will continue to protect me. Thanks for being my dad. I will always love and miss you until me meet again. Love, Jasmine. If we could have a lifetime wish A dream that would come true, We'd pray to God with all our hearts For yesterday and You. A thousand words can't bring you back We know because we've tried... Neither will a thousand tears We know because we've cried... You left behind our broken hearts And happy memories too... But we never wanted memories We only wanted You. Love Your Sisters Rosie and Shirley No words I write could ever say How sad and empty I feel today The angels came for you Your Much sooner than I planned And I’ll try my best to understand Chris why did you have to go away? Why wasn’t it right for you to stay? In my heart Chris, you’ll always to be. I love you dearly and I know you’ll watch over me. What I’m suffering seems to unfair But one thing is for certain My love for you will always be Chris, my son, you will always be An important part of my heart Ill cherish the moments I held you in my arms. And, I’m sure that if you had stayed longer, You would have graced me with your charms. A thousand words won’t bring you back I know because I’ve tried, neither will a thousand tears Now you’re up in heaven with the angels up above They will give you all their love. So go and rest in peace My little boy so dear For all my love and memories I will hold forever near Love, Mom You were the best granddad Love J.D.
