We All Love You and Will Miss You, Chris 3 In Memorial In Loving Memory of My Wife, June Marean It's been 1 year since that fateful day that forever changed my life.
I love miss you dearly for you'll alway be my wife. Greatly missed, Deeply loved. Your Husband, Bob. In Loving Memory of Our Mom, June Marean This morning my thoughts traveled along to a place in my life where days have long since gone. Beholding an image of what I used to be-as visions were stirred, and God spoke to me.
He showed me a warrior, a soldier in place, positioned by heaven, yet I saw not the face. I watched as the warrior fought enemies that came from the darkness with destruction for me. I saw as the warrior would dry away tears. As all of heaven's angels hovered so near, I saw many wounds on the warrior's face, yet weapons of warfare were firmly in place. I felt my heart weeping, my eyes held so much.
As God let me feel the warrior's prayer touched. I thought (how familiar) the words that were prayed. The prayers were like lightning that never would fade. I said to God (please, the warrior's name) he gave no reply, he chose to refrain I asked, (Lord, who is broken that they need such prayer?) He showed me an image of myself standing there. Bound by confusion, lost and alone.
I felt prayers of the warrior carry me home. I asked (Please show me Lord, this warrior so true) I watched and I wept for warrior was you! No words can describe how greatly missed you are, we love you! Lee, Chuck and family. Bobbi, Jack and family. Alice, Craig and family. Barb, Noreen, and Bobby.
In Loving Memory of Charles D. Hawley On October 17, 1996, you went away, and on October 21st, I said my goodbye. But goodbye doesn't mean forever. You're in my heart and thoughts everyday. With all my love, Helen In Loving Memory of Paul J.
