Often I find myself thinking of you Bob
Of the support and encouragement You've given me over the years
Of your generosity, kindness and guidance And especially of the many talks That we had together
And it's when I think of these things That I realize how much it has helped me To know that you've had many of the same dreams And doubts that I've had in life
Though I know I did'nt say it often enough Bob I admired you and love you very much.
No words I write can ever say .
How much I miss you every day.
As time goes by, the loneliness grows;
How I miss you, nobody knows!


Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free;,
I took His hand when I heard Him call
I turned my back and I left it all.
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work, or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way.
I found that place at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy--
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss--
Ah, yes, these things I, too, will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow;
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full; I savored much--
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief;
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me--
God wanted me now; He set me free


I think of you in silence,
I often speak your name,
But all I have are memories
And photos in a frame.
No one knows my sorrow,
No one sees me weep,
But the love I have for you
Is in my heart to keep.
I've never stopped loving you--
I'm sure I never will;
Deep inside my heart,
You are with me still.
Heartaches in this world are many
But mine is worse than any.
My heart still aches as I whisper low,
I need you and I miss you so.
The things we feel so deeply
Are often the hardest to say,
But I just can't keep quiet any more,
So I'll tell you anyway.
There is a place in my heart.
That no one else can fill;
I love you so,
And I always will
