Patrick DeWayne Turner “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.” Revelation 21:4
To My Family & Friends If I could come back for just one day I know exactly what I would say To my family and friends and those who I love As a message from God who speaks from above. I would say it’s okay to be sad for awhile But what I really want most is to see your smile, And for you to go on and live once again Allowing the Lord to comfort your pain. I know that you loved me with all of your heart And that none of you wanted for me to depart I don’t quite understand it myself But I know you’ll get by with a little help. Yes, I would say to be sad for a day And to do what you need to do; And then lift up your eyes to the wonder of the sky And know that I loved you too.
Love, Patrick
Gone But Not Forgotten God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea.” Psalm 46:1-2

In Memory of Our Dad If we could write a story It would be the greatest ever told Of a kind and loving father Who had a heart of gold. If we could write a million pages But still be unable to say, just how Much we love and miss him Every single day. We will remember all he taught us we’re hurt but won’t be sad Because he’ll send us down the answers And he’ll always be OUR DAD.

This is for someone wonderful as loved as one could be for you were everything in life you meant the world, you see And sometimes life can be unkind when hearts are torn in two but nothing ever could compare to the pain of losing you But all the love you left behind, forever will live on and so until we meet again rest peacefully, dear Son
Love from Your Father, Jack

Brother
You bid no one your last farewell Nor never said goodbye. You were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why. A million times we will miss you. A million times we will cry. If love alone could have saved you, You never would have died. You hold a place in our hearts, No one could ever fill. In life, we loved you dearly, In death, we love you still. It broke our hearts to lose you; but you didn’t go alone, for a part of us went with you, the day God took you home. We will meet again someday I know in a better place. We thank God He made you our brother While you were here on earth. We Will Always Love You. Your Sisters Nicole & Marquita
In Loving Memory Of Our Nephew Patrick Turner
Ms. Chrishuna Turner Ms. Jaila Stokes Mr. Jaylon Stokes
A Nephew’s eyes have gone forever, His smile, his laugh, his face, Where once he stood, before us, A lone picture takes his place.
Expressions:
Gone to soon, a fine young man From here, your place of birth. We can’t believe, that this is real, That you no longer walk this earth.

Eulogy.................................................Reverend Brian Robinson Recessional Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:27 (KJV)
Reality is, we know it’s true, But still, we can’t believe, A fine young man, with so much life, Really had to leave. We loved you from your time of birth, We watched you grow and learn, Our Nephew, we shall meet again, when it’s our time, to return. Love from Your Aunts, Rosie, Stancie, Ann, Sandy and Sylvia
~Acknowledgement ~ Patrick Dewayne Turner, Sr.
We, the family of , are incredibly grateful for your expressions of kindness and sympathy. Perhaps you sent a lovely card or sat quietly in a chair. Perhaps you sent a floral piece if so, we saw it there. Perhaps you spoke the kindest words as any friends could say. Perhaps you were not there at all, just thought of us this day. Whatever you did to console our hearts, we thank you so much, whatever the part. Please continue to keep our family in your prayers. May God bless and keep each, and every one of you is our prayer.
