Promoted to Heaven

Yesterday was Tony's Memorial Service. It was very fitting for a Soldier. The Army promoted him to Spc. William Farrar when he died. But he was promoted to a wonderful place when he died. His loved ones shall miss him but he is in a much better place than we are. Please continue to remember his Dad Tony Sr., his Stepmother Cathy and his mother Sally in your prayers. The service may be over but the heartache shall continue for quite some time.
Goodbye Tony.....See you in Heaven....
I wrote this poem about Tony...


Tony none of us knew that morning
that God had called your name.
Your church family and friends have always
loved you, and in death we do the same.

It has broken our hearts to lose you
we can remember your gentle smile.
But we shall see you again someday
it will just take a little while.

You have left us happy memories
you were thoughtful and you were kind
And even if we cannot see you,
you will forever be in our minds.

Your family’s hearts have been broken
and there is nothing we can say
However we shall see you again in heaven
when God calls us home one day.
