In Loving Memory Of

LORETTA ANN CARROLL

2/18/47- 3/29/06



Those of you that doesn't have a mother today, I hope this
message will help you............





When i left this world without you
I know it made you blue.

Your tears fell so freely,
I watched: I know this is true.

While you were weeping,
Days after i passed away.

While all was silent within me,
I saw you kneel and pray.

From the wonderful place called Heaven,
Where all my pain is gone.

I sent a gentle breeze to whisper,
"My loved ones,please go on".

The peace that i have found here,
Goes far beyond compare.

No rain, no clouds, no suffering,
Just love from everywhere.

You need not be troubled,
Just stay close to GOD in prayer.

Someday we'll be reunited: My love,His love surrounds you always,
Everywhere!Love from Heaven,at his side.


Happy Mothers Day To All The Mothers In The World...

When dawn's first light turned into day
Who knew an angel would soon call me away.

And though i didn't get the chance to say goodbye
I leave you three thing's to help you get by.

I leave you COURAGE that you might see
Your heart can rebuild without me.

I leave you FAITH that you might believe
The spirit will survive no matter how much we grieve.

And i leave you LOVE to comfort you in it's healing embrace
Until we meet again in another place.



The reason i wrote this blog is because i was doing a lot of thinking on how my mom had always told me that we will always survive anything that will come our way.......
Regardless of how big or small it may come but to always believe....
I went and paid respect to mom yesterday and put some flowers on her grave and as i was sitting there it's like as if i could hear my mom talk with me.........
And this blog is actually what i had came up with for i honestly felt as if mom was helping me with it while i was visiting with her...
I just pray that my blogs help someone that has lost a parent or loved one and really didn't know how to cope without them......

Let's always remember them .......... As it says you may be gone but you will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN.........

Although it happened long ago,
that first glad EASTER day;
Within the true believers heart,
its just as real today.

The Roman guards who kept the watch,
the early morning gloom;
The angel's words, "HE IS NOT HERE"
resounding from the tomb.

And oh, the joy in Mary's heart,
while in the garden fair;
To see her blessed LORD appear,
upon the pathway there.

Although it happened a long ago,
it still is there today;
Oh, let our hearts REJOICE and SING,
the stone is rolled away.

Time has been moving on though our world stands still.
We're looking all around for you but the truth is just to real.
So we know you're home safe in God's Home at last.
That's where we find comfort as another Easter is upon us and gonna pass.

Sorry that mo other blog had got posted twice it was my fault for i was trying to correct something and it posted......

Dear loving "wife" and "mother". If we could see you now we wouldn't
shed a tear.
Though it's hard for us to understand why you're no longer here.
We will remember your spirit for it lives within us.
We know you have been set free for a year now, oh if we could only see.
I know you have beheld our father's face and held his hand, and all of heavens angel's rejoiced as you had entered in.
Beyond the gates of pearl you're walking on streets of gold, I know the beauty is beyond any words to compare.
You have made it your mansion and someday we will see you there.
We are letting God guide us and help us ease our pain, we may be crying now but someday we'll meet you there.
Mom we love and miss you, Rest In Peace With God......


Your Loving Family,
Dad,Son's,Daughter,Grandkid's,Great Grandkid's and
Daughter and Son 'n' Law's......

My God is great, my god is good
My life I give him as I should.
I enter into the golden gates
And there my Jesus silently awaits.

I walk up to him, so beautiful and pure
And all of my suffering he will cure.
He picks me up, he hold my hand
And welcomes me to the promise land.

I praise his name, far and wide
For I am now standing by my Jesus's side.
No sorrow, no pain, no fears
No sign of anymore tears.

What a great day, so happy and free
This is the best day that could ever be.
I live again in this dear land
Where God and I walk hand in hand.

This place is heaven and that's where i am
God is my shepherd and I am his lamb.
Follow and trust in him until you die
So we can be together in the sweet by and by......

The 1st post

We do not need a special day to bring you to our minds,
The days we do not think of you are very hard to find,
There will always be a heartache and many silent tears,
But always a precious memory of the days when you were here,
We hold you close within our hearts and there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives until we see you again....

We Love You Mom



The 2nd post


God saw you getting tired
When a cure was not to be.

So he wrapped his arms around you
And whispered, Come unto me.

You didnt deserve what you went through
And so he gave you rest.

God's garden must be beautiful
He only takes the best.

So when i saw you sleeping
So peaceful and free from pain.

I could not wish you to come back
To suffer that all again.


Sadly missed by Husband,Children,Grandchildren,Great Grandchildren,Family and Friends...

I miss each and everyone of you so much that when days are sad and lonely, I seem to hear you say CHEER up and Carry on.

For your face is still before me, your voice i can't forget. God saw the road was getting rough.

And you couldn't go on, He gently closed your weary eye's and whispered "PEACE BE THINE"...

God knew you had to leave me, But a part of me went with you the day he call'ed you home....

This is our first Christmas without you. It is hard to believe it has been only nine month's since you went away.

We never lose the one's we love though they are gone,their memory linger's on within the heart's of those who are left behind.

Loving memorie's never die,as year's roll on and day's goes by. In our heart's a memory is kept for the one we loved so dear.

Mom you have a new great grand-daughter that was born on Thanksgiving Day who will never get to know you. Other then a picture they will see on your head tomb or on the wall...


We all love and miss you very dearly...

Close to my heart are the hour's we have share'd

And the hope's that together we've known,

Close to my heart are the plan's we have made

And the dream's we have call'ed our own. . . .

Dearer to me than word's ever could say

Are the thing's in which you have a part,

For all through the future; what ever life hold's

You'll always be close to my HEART! ! ! !

The day my heart stopp'ed was when the army recruiter call'ed,
My heart felt like a clock ticking when i sit and bawl'ed.
Only parent's know what it's like when Uncle Sam take's their only
son,
It's as if your'e carring around a ton.


One day it's bright and hot from the sun,
But darkness fall's and war begin's with a gun.
I'm sitting here at home waiting for the ring of the phone,
Cause i know my son is there all alone.


He's only 17 and not at his prime,
But Uncle Sam give's you no time.
My heart ache's with pain,but in time,
I know that my son will gain.

I'm writing this post here to everyone that has ever lost a love one..


When tomorrow starts without me,and i'm not here to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eye's all fill'ed with tear's,
I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today,
While thinking of the many thing's 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 too,
But when tomorrow start's without me,please try to understand,
That an angel came and call'ed my name,and took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready in Heaven far above,
And i'd have to leave behind all those i dearly love,
But as i turn'ed to walk away,a tear fell from my eye,for all
my life,I'd always thought i didn't want to die,
I had so much to live for and so much yet to do,
It seem'ed almost impossible that i was leaving you,
I thought of all the yesterday's, the good one's and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shar'ed, and all the fun we had,
If i could relive yesterday, i thought for just a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you and maybe see you smile,
But then i fully realized that this could never be,
For emptiness and memorie's would take the place of me,
And when i thought of wordly thing's that i'd miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when i did my heart was fill'ed with sorrow,
But when i walk'ed through Heaven's gates, I felt so much at home,
When GOD look'ed down and smile'd at me from his great golden throne, He said "This is eternity and all i've promise'd you",
Today for life on earth is past but here it it start's anew,
I promise'd no tomorrow, but today will always last,
And since each day's the same day, no longing for the past,
But you have been so faithful, so trusting,so true,
Through there were time's you did some thing's, you knew you shouldn't do,
But you have been forgiven and now at last you're free,
So won't yoy take my hand and share my life with me?
So when tomorrow start's without me, don't think we're far apart for every time you think of me,
I'm right here in your HEART...
