“I’m Free”
Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free I’m following the path God Laid for me. I took His hand when I heard him call I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way I’ve now found peace at the end of the day. If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joys. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss Oh yes, these things, I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow Look for the sunshine of tomorrow. My life’s been full, I savored much Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch. Perhaps my time seemed all to brief Don’t lengthen your pain with undue grief. Lift up your heart and peace to thee, God wanted me now He set me free. I will be in touch again P.S. God Sends His Love Goodnith!!! Mr. Stitt

BROTHER

lthough we seem so for apart son, you will always be in our heart. You filled our lives with so much joy to us you were our precious baby boy. A little while shall pass and then we will see each other once again. Loved, remembered and held so dear in our hearts and minds son, you’re always near. Good Night Mom & Dad
You gave no one a last farewell Nor ever said good-bye. You were gone before we knew it, and only God Knows why. A million times we will cry. If love alone could have saved you, You never would have died. In life we loved you dearly. In death we love you still. In our hearts you hold a place, no one else can fill. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn’t go alone, for part of us went with you, the day God took you home. We will meet again someday I know in a better place. I thank God He made you our brother While you were here on earth.
In memory of Brother Kevin (Catrina, Stephanie, Teresa, and Brian)

ur Heart is still heavy as we knew it would be, but we will get through this. A good man’s footprints were washed away Friday evening, never to walk this way again. He can never be replaced not as again, because he was one of the greatest. Replacement is not a word in our vocabulary because he cannot be replaced. Rest in Peace Daddy. Good Night !!! Love, Tavares, LaToya, and Camri
