You are my SunshineMy Only SunshineYou make me happyWhen skies are greyYou’ll never know DadHow much I love youPlease don’t take your sunshine away

Your sunshine is forever inside of me…thank you Daddy (and Mommy)for your love And for teaching me the love of family.

Love, Bobbi Lulu Bell

When I left the hospital for the last time, after my Dad died, this song wasPlaying on my car CD player: Carrie Underwood: Till I see you Again.

Said goodbye, turned around and you were gone, gone, goneFaded into the setting sun,Slipped away…but I won’t cryCause I know I’ll never be lonelyFor you are the stars to me, you are the light I followI’ll see you again, oh this is not where it endsI will carry you with me, oh Till I see you again.

I can hear those echoes in the wind at nightCalling me back in time…back to you.In a place far away, where the water meets the skyThe thought of it makes me smileYou are my tomorrowI’ll see you again, this is not where it endsI will carry you with me, oh Till I see you again.Sometimes I feel my heart is breaking. But I stay strong and I hold onCause I know I’ll see you again. This is not where it ends. I will carry you with me.

I thought of you today, but that is nothing new.I thought about you yesterday and days before

that too.I think of you in silence, I often speak your

name.All I have are memories and your picture in a

frame.Your memory is a keepsake from which I’ll

never part.God has you in His arms, I have you in my

heart.
