"NEPHEW"
Jay you've been such a good example of what a loving nephew should be. You and I always got along so well. Even if we disagree.
You've always been so patient and so understanding. You never asked for anything that was too demanding.
Jay you were always so willing to give. You were always a joy to be around. You were such a wonderful nephew. You deserve to wear a special crown.
You had such a good heart and you were always honest and true. You have been to me such a loving nephew and your Auntie dearly loved you.
I've seen my grandson crying, I've seen his heart in two,
I've seen when he is hurting, and when he's down and blue.
He sometimes needed someone special,
To give his heart a gentle tug,
But then sometimes all he really needed,
Was a great big "GRAMMY HUG"
Little Did We Know
Little Did We Know
Little did we know that morning that God would
call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone. For part of us went
with you the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories,
your love is still our guide. And though we cannot see you, you are
always on our side. Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
Life is but a stopping place
Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what’s to be a resting place,
Along the road to sweet eternity. We all
Have different journeys, different paths along
The way, we all were meant to learn some things,
But never meant to stay … our destination is a
Place far greater than we know. For some,
The journey’s quicker, for some the journey’s
Slow. And when the journey finally ends,
We’ll claim a great reward and find an
Everlasting peace together,
With the Lord.
I’d like the memory of me
to be a happy one.
I’d like to leave an afterglow
of smiles when life is done.
I’d like to leave an echo
whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing times
and bright and sunny days.
I’d like the tears of those who grieve,
to dry before the sun
of happy memories
that I leave when life is done.
A Mother's Love
A Mother's love is something that no one can explain,
It is made of deep devotion and of sacrifice and pain.
It is endless and unselfish and enduring come what may,
For nothing can destroy it or take that love away . . .
It is patient and forgiving when all others are forsaking,
And it never fails or falters even though the heart is breaking . . .
It believes beyond believing when the world around condemns,
And it glows with all the beauty of the rarest, brightest gems . . .
It is far beyond defining,
It defies all explanation,
And it still remains a secret like the mysteries of creation . . .
A many splendoured miracle man cannot understand,
And another wondrous evidence of God's tender guiding hand.
I can't seem to move past the ache but I'm going to continue to praise the Lord anyway, thanking him for your life and its impact on mine.
I will love you always.
Love is not gone, just away for a while, it remains in your spirit, And in memories of your smile!
I can feel it in my heart, with every breath that I take, For you remain apart of me, Whether I am asleep or awake.
Love is not gone, Just because you're not here, it does not wash away when I shed a tear. Love is not gone, Especially you see, Because one day we will be Reunited for eternity.
LOVE YOU MUCH, MISS YOU MORE, SEE YOU LATER! CRYSTAL
To Mommy With Love
Mommy please accept my apology for leaving you so soon,
I'm sorry for the strange silence when you walk int my empty room,
I'm sorry I didn't have the chance to hug you and tell you good-bye,
I'm sorry that you're sad and have tears in your eyes,
But I heard the voices of Jesus and I just couldn't ignore, Although I was a little confused, His smile rested me assure,
So I grabbed onto his hand mommy and I just wanted you to know, I'm in the arms of Jesus, trust that it is so, I know it's hard to walk into an empty room.
But, I'm always with you mommy We don't have to say good-bye I'm holding your hand right now, I love you for eternity
LOVE NEVER DIES..... LOVE JASON
Mommy Please Don't Feel Guilty
It was just my time to go.
I see you are still feeling sad,
And the tears just seem to flow.
We all come to earth for our lifetime,
And for some it’s not many years
I don’t want you to keep crying
You are shedding so many tears.
I haven’t really left you
Even though it may seem so.
I have just gone to my heavenly home,
And I’m closer to you than you know.
Just believe that when you say my name
I’m standing next to you,
I know you long to see me,
But there’s nothing I can do.
But I’ll still send you messages
And hope you understand,
That when your time comes to “cross over,”
I’ll be there to take your hand.
Jason's 30th Birthday
"This Year You Will Celebrate Your Birthday In Heaven"
In Loving Memory
Written by: Lynn Cummings
Jason Lindel Cummings
Friday,September 7, 1979 to Sunday, April 5, 2009
There is no cake to cut; there is no ice-cream to share,
There is just an empty seat at the dining room table there.
That is a fact that is very clear,
But we will still celebrate with you my dear
For this year you would celebrate thirty years of life
Loving, rejoicing with lots of laughter and some tears
Reaching out to people both far and near
Touching the hearts of those that were even your peers
Jay, in my heart my precious I want you to know
There will always be a memory candle that will always glow
There was a time when you laid under my heart
Now a tragic event in our lives have caused us to part
No one on earth will ever truly understand,
How much I miss you baby, how hard it is to go on without my little man,
You were my joy precious, my life and blessing from God,
Being a mother to you was my reasonable service, it was a joy not a job
Oh Jay I knew one day that you would leave the nest,
But I never knew that it would be because God knew best,
Because of one awful night when you were homeward bound
Evil sought after you, and caught you, and there caught in evils grips you were found
No one you loved was there to whisper to you sweet darling it is alright,
Go ahead Jesus is here, it's okay to take your scheduled flight,
My darling son in the arms of Jesus is where you will go,
God's love, comfort and peace is all you will ever know
Because in your heart was a place where the spirit of God dwells,
To your rightful place where eternal life will not fell
To keep you wrapped up in God's comfort and peace
Surrounded with God's love for an eternity where it will never cease
Jay, no one will ever know what a price that Sunday morning you paid
To be justified and rewarded for the promise on Calvary Hill Jesus made
Our precious Savior laid down His life on that old wooden rugged cross
Then went to hell and showed the devil and death who was boss
Victory, victory Jay is your real story
That Sunday morning was not your end
You went home to your Father in heaven
That He and only He would get the real glory
Jesus proclaimed,"oh death where is your sting"
Only I can raise the dead and give life this is for sure
I laid down my life and paid the debt for Jason
For I am the light and the resurrection, I am that pure
Because of this thing that our Precious Savior did
Jesus took the sting out of death, and gave you victory Jay, all of that Jesus did
Now you are resting my sweet precious one
You know unlike your mommy, that the victory was really won
What a wonderful time you must be having celebrating there
Angels all around you singing Happy Birthday Jason
Rejoicing and praising the one who really care
Not one preparation for this birthday celebration was eliminated no not none
Now to all of your loved ones you have left behind
That we must learn the true love of God, and how easy it is to find
To be able to rest in the arms of Jesus, with no worry, or no care
To know Jay that you are safe in heaven up there
But I just want you to know, we are celebrating your birthday
All of your family and all of your true friends
We are all celebrating your life and birthday
Because we know that death is not where celebrating a birthday ends
Happy Birthday my precious Son, We all truly loved you,
From: Mommy, Pops, Grammy, Granddaddy, Auntie,
All your brothers and sisters, Mom B, a host of Aunt's and Uncle's
your Godparents, your Cousins, and your Church Family
and your special mom, Pastor Mary L. Johnson,
Extended family, friends, neighbors
