Jesus Is Always True

I'm So Glad I Know the Lord Do You Know Him, Too?

Cooling the Apple Pies In the Windows

Remembering Mother's Day

The Beautiful Pink Daffodils



I Once Was Lost But Now I See

Mom's Gardenia Bush

The Wind and the Waves

Remembering Dad and Mom

The Beautiful Camellias

The Green Grass Of Home

The Love Of One Brother For Another

He Came Alone

Mother's Day In Heaven

I''d Rather Have Jesus

Jesus is Real

The Ringing of the Christmas Bells

Courtney and Ronnie Are My Mentors

Zandra Sees the Robin

The Love Of His Life Has Passed Away

Praise the Lord

Lyle--A Man of Many Talents

Ronnie and His Invaluableness

Ronnie--A Man With A Purpose

The Happiness of the Birds Is God's Gift To All People

Be One That Circumspectly Walks to Please God

Mom's Desire to Please God Is For All Time

Lyle Is a Treasured Man Whom I Care and Love

Ronnie and His Desire to Love Others

The Birds From God Gently Sing

Ronnie--a Man of Truth Always

Give of Your Best to Jesus All the Time

Ten Years and Eleven Months --Dad Died



Ten years and eleven months ago Dad died.
He passed away at a nursing home which was the last home he ever had.
Being with dementia he wasn't the same kind hearted dad I knew.
He was grouchy and very much to himself it seemed.
He would recognize I was there but I don't believe we could have had a one on one.
I miss Dad so very much and always will.
I was there in the same room with Dad before he died.
I was minutes away from him as he was dying.
Jesus was there for He took Dad away as  He took Mom.
All of this happened ten years and eleven months ago.
I don't regret it now of being with Dad.
I did however for a time regret that I had to lose the home we had.
For this I hope Dad will forgive me for feeling the way I did.
I am most happy to know where Dad is today.
