I'm writing this from heaven, here I dwell with God above.
Here there's no more tears or sadness, 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."
God gave me a list of things that He wished for me to do.
And foremost on that list was to watch-over and care for you.
I will be beside you every day, and week and year.
And when you're sad I'm standing there to wipe away each tear.
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 life on earth and all those loving years,
Because you're only human, they're 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.
And to all my friends, trust, God knows what is best.
I'm still not very far away from you, I'm just beyond the crest.
When you're waliking down the street and you've got me on your mind,
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when you feel a gentle breeze or the wind upon your face,
That's me giving you a great big hug or just a soft embrace.
And when it's time for you to go from that body to be free,
Remember you're not going, you're coming home to me.
And I will always love you from that land way up above,
We'll be in touch again some day!
P.S. God sends His love.

May this bring you some comfort in knowing that even through death, love
remains. Love remains strong and present, wrapped around us, and lives
in us. Your love Mike surrounds you everyday, in your three babies...she is
there. I honour my friend Jo. I honour her partner and the love of her life,
Mike. And I honour her beautiful children, Dylan, Dean and Darcy whom
she cherished.
ฺ
Even though time has passed from my teenage days with Jo & Mike... and
gone are our days together Teaching...I remember so much laughter,
sharing the ups and downs of life (and we shared a few!) Jo was always
good to me. I think she was a great Lady, who could take on anybody!
Even now the thought of her makes me smile.
ฺ
The last three days, I watched the people come. Come to offer respect,
come to share in sorrow, come to rejoice in her life. That's why I was there.
So many faces, so many people she touched. Jo made a difference in this
world, in so many ways. Wow, so many people.
ฺ
We will continue to pray for you Mike and the kids and for the family.
Jo will be missed, but never forgotten.
ฺ
Don't forget, your Angel is with you, watching you, loving you ... still.

With much love,
Deanna, Bruce, Emma, Jake and Cooper White
