I came upon the child of God as I was walking down the road. I asked him where he was going and this he told me: I am going down to see a rock and roll band, and we have got to get back to the land and set our souls free.
My dearest little brother, I will always think of you everyday. Your gift of selflessness and kindness, your ability to give more than you have, and the blessings of praying with you will be eternal. Jesus and you are having a wonderful time, and I know that you are enjoying paradise. God rest your soul in eternal peace. It's hard to let you go and I will be brave, I will try my best, because without you here, this world is missing a blessed man who blessed others. Love is eternal, and that will always be with me, God bless the memories that we all have shared with you in our life. I will miss you. Someday, we will all be together again in paradise. Thank you, thank Jesus for allowing you to be in this world to bless so many of us. Thank you and Jesus for all the kind things you did for me, and for loving me like a sister. Jesus gave you a little while to bless us, and then when your work was done, you went home to be with Jesus. Well done, brother, well done. Love always, your sister, Jennie
