Memories of You-Author Unkown

We remember everything about you, your voice, your smile, your touch, the way you walked, the way you talked, the way you looked at us,

We remember the words you said to us, some funny, some kind, some wise, all of the things you did for us, we see now with different eyes.

We remember every moment we shared, seems like only yesterday, or maybe it was eons ago, it’s really hard to say.

You have been gone from us 6,212 days now, but your memory resides inside our hearts, and lights up our darkest days.

Sadly missed by your loving Wife: Cynthia; Children: Cherfelt, Chervonne, Chercovie, Chernette, Monique, Tanya, Carla, Sheanda; Grandchildren: Siblings, Elvena and Marilyn, Relatives and Friends.
