A Letter from Heaven
TO my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there are no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, 'I welcome you.'
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.'
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......'My day was not in vain.'
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
My Tribute to you
My memories are all I have left.
I’m trying to put down in words, the grief I'm feeling right now.
I feel so empty, so alone, so sad, I could go on and on.
Through my heavy tears, all I can see is your face.
Through a heavier heart, all I can hear is your laugh.
I'm trying so hard to come to terms with Saturday night.
The vision, the cries from your Mum and Dad will haunt me forever.
As they kissed you goodbye, I just felt so, so helpless.
Seeing your daughter, being so strong so brave and so mature.
She is such a credit to you and Sharon, she musn't blame herself.
You can see in your sons eyes, he was very very proud of you.
He wants to be just like you and follow your footsteps.
The mental torture on Sharon’s face is there for all to see.
Your family needs your warm rays of sunshine more than ever.
Since that night, my memories of us growing up have been flooding back.
Our holidays to butlins, football and cricket in the park.
Sunday afternoons in the red den and going to Valley Parade with our Uncle's.
We even went to City together on that tragic day.
The Bradford City fire is still fresh and raw to this day.
The photo of me and you with Grandma as kids, brings back happy memories.
Where ever I went, you went and vica versa.
My mum's probably forgotten more stories about us than I can ever remember.
As time went by our paths went in different direction.
But our friendship never dwindled, our bond never broke.
Normally I'd put my thoughts in a poem to express how I feel.
But my sorrow wont allow me to think straight.
So I just wrote down how I feel, in a tearful tribute.
I'll finish off with a thank you for the good memories
because my memories are all I have left.
Rest in peace Chris.
Unbelievable
I cant believe you are gone too. It was a blow when Lee died tragically, but you 3months later at the young age of 34 is mind blowing and heart rendering for everyone who knew and loved you. You were a good bloke and will leave a lasting imprint on your family and friends hearts. RIP Chris. x
