Look For Me in Rainbows

It’s time for me to go now

But I won’t say goodbye

Look for me in rainbows,

Way up in the sky

In the morning sunrise

When all the world is new

Just look for me and love me

As you know I love you

Time for me to leave you

I won’t say goodbye

Look for me in rainbows

High up in the sky

In the sunset

When all the world is through

Just look for me and love me

And I’ll be close to you.

It won’t be forever

The day will come and then

My loving arms will hold you

When we meet again

The family would like to acknowledge every card, flower or any other act of kindness that has been shown towards us during our time of grief.

Dear Little Brother,

I know God called you home.

And you gave your life to Jesus Christ. When I got that call, my world came to a stop and held on to myself. And when we saw each other, all we could do was hug in silence for a long time, I tried not to cry because if you had seen me crying it would have made things worse. We both knew it was going to be an up-and-downhill battle. And you said to me “Remember you were my power of attorney before, a long time ago” I said yes and you said “I need you again now. I know you will take care of things for me the right way.” I smiled and said yes I got you. We will get through this together. I was happy and sad. I said my little brother knows he can still count on me. The joy in my heart, the time we spent together is wonderful and we always said “I love you” each night and day.

I will never forget it.

Watching TV, going back to our old school memories and laughing and saying “These kids today don’t know about this here”, the old Batman, you said your favorite words “You know” “Right”

It was my pleasure and my honour to walk with you on your journey my dear little brother.

I thank God for having you as my little brother June.

I love you and miss you, you know!

Love from your sister Rod
