A Letter From Heaven

When tomorrow starts without me

And I'm not here to see, 

If the sun should rise and find your eyes

Filled with tears for me

I wish so much you wouldn't cry

the way you did today

while thinking of the many things

we didn't get to say

I know how much you love me

as much as I love you

and each time you think of me

I know you'll miss me to

so when tomorrow starts without me, 

don't think we're far apart 

for every time you think of me

I'm right there in your heart. 

The family would like to offer a sincere heart felt thank you to all that offered their love and support during these difficult times.
