GOD IS IN CONTROL
Earth has no sorrows that heaven can not heal
Even though right now hurt is what you feel
Memories gain never cease
My prayers is for God to grant you peace
Love and encourage each other along the way
Be real and caring in whatever you do and say
Although our love one has depart
They belonged to God right from the start
Death when it comes is only a forever sleep
Knowing they are going away is why we weep
Have joy in know our soul is for God to keep
Know our loss is Heavens gain
Live you life for Jesus you see them again
Be grateful for the memories through life you compile
Be reminded of their every smile
Be please for time spent all the while
Although the sorrow is hard to bear
Grieve as you will know God is near
Look up to God for strength each day
He'll be with you to carry you all the way
Give your God your life and hold on to His hand
It doesn't matter if you are young or old
Keep God first know He is in Control
Allow him to guide you with purpose for He holds the plan
Live , love, and do have faith to do your best
Trust the Lord to do the rest

I remember this young man when they were in my after school program. Him and his two brothers. They were always one of my favorite group of kids that would always have me laughing and just made the room feel so comforatable because of there personalities. They were always the life of the classroom. I so speechless right now. My deepest condolences are with you and your family Mrs. Tasha
