"For My Grandpa
I know we are all feeling a little bit sad,
That we've lost our Grandpa, our friend and our dad
Together we have cried an ocean of tears
As we feel so empty and hold many fears
But Grandpa would want us to know he's in a good place
And that he watching us all with a smile on his face
As we have made him so proud, as proud as can be
That he has raised such a beautiful and special family
Thinking back now I really must say
I feel lucky and privileged to have known Grandpa to this day
For in my life, you have played a special part
The memories I will treasure and keep close to your heart
For me I am glad my little babies he got to meet
And for all of us, be grateful, his life is now complete
To each one of us he has loved and cared
And a family, be thankful for the good times we shared
Although he has gone we will always be together
And his spirit will live on in each one of us forever
When you look to the sky, look for the brightest star
As that will be Grandpa looking down on us from afar
And now I would like to thank the good Lord above
For blessing us with our Grandpa with his kindness and love
Dear God, if it is not too much fuss
Take extra special care of our Grandpa as he is very dear to us
Grandpa, if you are listening say a prayer for us every day
Be sure to protect us and guide us on our way
We know when God called you, you had to go
But we want you to know Grandpa we miss you and love you so"
I only met you a couple of times but Donna spoke of you at least weekly for a number of years. You may never realize the enormous impact you have had on the people you have touched with your generosity, friendship and of course your work as Santa. May God hold you in the palm of his hands until we meet again.
We were the most fortunate people to have spent cherished moments with Ray in our lives. He had the biggest heart, big enough to accommodate each and every one of us. His warm eyes, his wisdom, his smile, and his comforting words made you feel that much more blessed by his presents. He will be missed by everyone that has ever been touched by his kindness and his love. Thank you Lord for sending him to all of us, he taught us so much about love, kindness and patience. I will miss you during our time apart and look forward to seeing you again someday in heaven.
