Carolyn Alston Obituary

To my Auntie Boo, from the enriched beautiful stories that mom has shared with me, to the angelic personality you carried inside and out everywhere you went, it was truly a blessing to have you as part of our lives. And I thank God for giving mom (Francine) and myself back in July 2012 the opportunity to see you and cousin Linda again to fellowship with love and joy in our hearts that we will embrassed and treasure forever. You were one of Gods true angels on earth that He allowed us to borrow and called back home. I pray that God strength will comfort us all and knowing that you are with Him will make our endeavors much easier. You will be missed by all who loves you.

To the family, I will always love and miss my cousin Boo, and thank god for the time he allowed us to have her.

Family be encourage. Boo was such a beautiful person. She truly loved God and her family. I met her years ago when I lived with Mrs Carolina and we worked at the Va together.I sawed her a few months ago and she still had that kind and loving ways. HER SMILE WAS STILL BEAUTIFUL. A soldier of God have finish her course and now is resting. Cry if you must because you will miss her, but one day we will see her again when we gather at the Throne of God. To her husband, a job well done, you stood by her to the end.

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

Please know that the God of all comfort is with your family and will help you to endure the temporary loss of your loved one. (Romans 15:5)

With Deepest Sympathy,

Jermaine and family, I pray that God strengthen you not only now but even there after. I know its hard but know that God is with you, he will never put more on you than you can bare. Stay strong, and encouraged.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is 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.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
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 my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are 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.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
