Death, be not proud

Death, be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;
For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow
Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,
Much pleasure; then from thee much more must flow,
And soonest our best men with thee do go,
Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.
Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men,
And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,
And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well
And better than thy stroke; why swell'st thou then?
One short sleep past, we wake eternally
And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die.

By John Donne
The Poetry Foundation

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

to my dear family may your faith in god keep you strong.with heartfelt sympathy.remember you love him but god love him best. i feel your lost because we have walk your path.the power of pray will keep you.

May the peace of God be with the family in your time of bereavement. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Hi Jarvis and Jervis I know that I only met you once but you both were very nice, I am a friend of Jarvis's co-work Dolly. I prayers are with you in your time of loss. It is hard to loose a parent at any age.

To the Jenkins family

May you find comfort and strength in the God of all comfort during your time of grief.

You are in our prayers.

Deacon, Julia Young-Goss

To Shannon and All of the Jenkins Family: We are so very sorry to hear of your loss. Shannon, know how very much your extended family (the JICHS Band Family) love you and grieve with you.

We had no idea of the burden that you were bearing as you worked with us side by side this past Saturday at the band competition at Wando. Surely Mr. Jenkins was a wonderful father to have a son like you who has been so loyal and dedicated to the needs of high school band students for so many years. It would have been so easy and so very appropriate for you to remain at your father's side, yet you selflessly supported these kids who have known and loved you for so many years.

I know that your father must be in heaven smiling down upon you and your lovely family. Our thoughts and prayers will remain with all of you.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. "And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Philipians 4:7

May God be with you and keep you , during this hard time...E.Washington and Family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

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.
