I went to your funeral,
 I know that you were there.
You were smiling down on us all,
as we sat in the church and the hall.
It was so hard for me to look at you in your pretty dress,
as we all were there to lay you to rest.
There will be many sad days for us here on this earth,
 but, I will reflect back to your birth.
You had a scruffy voice when I took care of you,
 I will never forget what you and Jeremy put me through.
The time Jeremy buried you in the corn,
or the times we celebrated the date when you each were born.
The meatloaf which I didn’t fix right,
You told me your dad would not get uptight.
And now, when I saw you in the grocery store,
you stopped to talk and didn’t act bored.
You were very special to me,
 even though I didn’t often come and see,
all the things that you did in and out of school.
I often read about them and thought “cool!”
This little girl that I helped raise,
 is getting what she deserves, lots of praise.
But, the night my mom called,
I felt an ache and bawled.
Because a piece of my past,
left me way too fast,
 and there is nothing I could do this time!

Goodbye my Little Angel from the past,
we have a lot of memories that will forever last!!

I miss you and hope that you will watch over me,
and till it it time for me to join thee.

Love your babysitter, Shawna

Your Little Angel’s been laid to rest,
as we all know God, he only takes the Best.
I shall miss you, Mom and Dad,
Jeremy, Jason and Lindsay, try not to be sad.
God has called on me you see,
He wanted me to watch over thee.

To my friends: Think of me when you see the sun in the sky,
and when it rains you will feel the tears that I cry.
I still had a lot of life to live,
but, God knew that in Heaven I could give,
twice as much protection to you.
I am sorry for the suffering I put you through.

My memories will forever live on in your hearts,
and while we are apart,
I want you all to know how much I feel your love,
When I was on earth, but even more in the heavens up above.

I love you all,
Someday it will be time for your call,
so until we meet again,
I’ll keep on a prayin’.

Love You Always,
Lisa Dawn

My Little Angel Up Above

We have had so much fun over the years,
now my heart is pouring out tears,
as one important part of my past,
had to go to Heaven so very fast.
I don’t understand why He had to take one so sweet,
I guess he knew you would smile and greet,
each of the angels up above, with your undying love,
for those all around you,
but, now I am feeling blue.
You played your last game,
and I will never hear your name,
as they announce who will start,
that leaves a big hole in my heart.
You always had a smile on your face
and walked with such ease and grace.
Those parties in the park will not be the same,
Your curls in the morning will not have to be tamed.
You were my little angel to watch over,
and now you are watching over me.
Why did this have to be?
Why couldn’t it have been me?
You gave 110% in everything your did,
You were just a little kid.
But, God does take the best,
Maybe now you can rest.
Lisa Dawn, I want you to know,
That you are Loved so!
