When Tomorrow Starts Without Me
When tomorrow starts without me And I’m not here to see If the sun should rise and find your eyes All filled with tears for me I wish you wouldn’t cry The Way you did today While thinking of the many things We did not get to say
~Expressions of Gratitude ~
Words cannot express how grateful our family is for having your generous support, encouraging words, and thoughts and prayers. Thank You for thinking of us in our time of need. -The Family of Sandra Cotton

I know how much you love me As much as I love you Each time that you think of me I know you will miss me too

When tomorrow starts with out me Please try to understand That an angel came and called my name And took me by the hand
~Committal Rites & Interment ~
The angel said my place was ready In heaven far above And That I would have to leave behind All those I Dearly Love

But When I walked through Heaven’s Gates I felt so much at home When GOD looked down and smiled at me From his golden throne He said This Is Eternity And All I promised you Today for life on earth is done But Here it starts a new I promise no tomorrow For today will always last And Since each day’s the exact same way There is no longing for the past So When Tomorrow starts without me Do not think we’re apart For every time you think of me Remember I’m right here in your heart
