I leave this poem in remembrance of my baby bro; Gone, but not Forgotten.
We thought of you with Love today.
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday.
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keep sake.
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our heart.
~ McKay Family
This is the song our family sang at Lance's funeral. I still cry a little when I hear the words, so I still dedicate this song to him from us.
FAMILY CIRCLE
Memories of my childhood days I recall them now and then.
When at home with all the family there.
But the circle has been broken, it's not the same anymore,
And up there we'll meet again on Heaven's shore.
CHORUS:
I wonder if the family circle will be together once again
Over there on Heaven's shining shore.
Never more to separate, we'll sing around the throne.
I wonder if the family circle will all be home.
Will Daddy be there waiting when I cross the chilly tide.
Will Mother be there sitting by his side.
I pray the family circle will be together by and by
In a land where the soul shall never die.
CHORUS:
