John Joseph Mullins Born to Earth November 23, 1964 Born to Heaven October 6, 2002 I know you will grieve and miss my presence Please don’t let yourselves not enjoy Christmas because I’m not there. I will be there in spirit at Christmas as I am any other time. I just want you to know how happy I am There are no words that can explain the beauty here you could not ever imagine We sing and praise God daily The Angels sing also, you should hear them, they are just beautiful. I walk with God everyday, He tells me how much He has missed me He says I will be at the gate to meet my loved ones when they come home What a glorious day that will be The streets are made of gold, and no one is ever sick I can walk without hurting, I don’t have trouble breathing, you should see me, I can even run And no one can ever hurt me again I'm surroundnded by little Angels, I play with Angel Bradley everyday My wish for you is until you arrive look out for one another Be kind to the disadvantage, and the lost Spread the gospel wherever you go Take a stand for what is right, even if you must stand alone Even though you think you are alone you are not, and when looking down you will see only one set of footprints And that is when He carried you. This is true, He has told me of my many trials and tribulations And He said “I was beside you at all times” My dear family don’t weep for me, for I’m the lucky one When it is your time to come home, I will be waiting at the gate I love all of you and wish you a Merry Christmas John I still hear the songs I still see the lights I still feel your love on cold wintry nights I still share your hopes and all of your cares I'll even remind you to please say your prayers I just want to tell you you still make me proud You stand head and shoulders above all the crowd Keep trying each moment to stay in His grace I came here before you to help set your place You don't have to be perfect all of the time He forgives you the slip if you continue the climb To my family and friends please be thankful today I'm still close beside you in a new special way I love you all dearly now don't shed a tear Cause I'm spending my Christmas with Jesus this year Copyright 1989 John Wm. Mooney A smile is missing when saying one name. For parents who’ve lost a daughter or son, Nothing can bring back the delightful fun, Of watching them talk, laugh, or just run. The memories are all that we do have now, We do go on…..only God knows how. A New Year comes as midnight arrives, Our Angels still a big part of our lives. If only we could trade the presents we receive, For one more day with those whom we grieve! But nothing can bring back our beloved child, The one that laughed, cried, and often smiled. They are together in a much better place, Watching us cry…..touching our face! Although we miss them on Holidays to share, Be assured their loving presence fills the air, At home, in church, at New York’s Times Square! So celebrating the Holidays are now hard to do, But always remember they are thinking of you too, Wishing you happiness and showing their love, Not on this Earth, but from Heaven above! In Memory of his daughter, Jessica To shatter all the darkness and bless the times we knew. Like a beacon in the night The flame will burn bright and guide us on our way. Oh, today I light a candle for you. The seasons come and go, and I'm weary from the change. I keep on moving on, you know it's not the same. And when I'm walking all alone Do you hear me call your name? Do you hear me sing the songs we used to sing? And I will light a candle for you. To shatter all the darkness and bless the times we knew. Like a beacon in the night The flame will burn bright and guide us on our way. Oh, today I light a candle for you. You filled my life with wonder, touched me with surprise, Always saw that something special deep within your eyes. And through the good times and the bad, We carried on with pride. I hold onto the love and life we knew. And I will light a candle for you. To shatter all the darkness and bless the times we knew. Like a beacon in the night The flame will burn bright and guide us on our way. Oh, today I light a candle for you. I love, and miss you and will be preparing a place for you. All my love, John I find it so easy to create gifts for him. It would have been such an honor to have known him. God Bless You Joy Will Come In The Morning Love Ann, Laurasmom GEOFFREY P.
