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 his call,
I turned my back and left it all.

Thank you so much for all you've done for my family and I. You are the GREATEST jewel a man or woman could ever ask for. I prayed at an early age asking God to prepare me for the day you'd be called from labor to rest, but truly, there's no way to prepare. I love you so much papa. I know I'll forever be your baby!!
