A poem from his children:

This Is Not Good Bye

I did not want to leave you

It was just my time to go

I know your heart is breaking

So I need to let you know

That although you can no longer see me

I’ll be forever by your side

I promise time will numb the pain

And help dry the tears you’ve cried

You can reach me in your memories

Just think of me and I’ll be there in your dreams

We can visit yesteryear where we didn’t have a care

Please carry on and live your life

I beg of you to try

Just know we’ll meet again one day

As this is not goodbye

By:Maxine Bailey

A poem from his Sister

Their Memories Stays

Although they have passed on

Their memories forever stays

Remember how they smiled

And the joy they always gave

We’ll miss the all the time

And think of them everyday

Their love filled the world

A love that will never fade
