Special Aunt

by Ann Stareyes   Jan 14, 2006


A woman close to my heart
One I cherished without a doubt
An Angel I looked up to
She taught me what life was about.

A loving Christain woman
That lived for God each day
She loved me and my siblings
In such a Motherly way.

She never seeked marriage
Or had kids of her own
We were her kids and family
All she had ever known.

My Mom died yrs. ago
A void hard to fill
My Aunt was our Angel
We would cherish her until...

Now she rejoices in Heaven with Mom
This is the day she lived for
To be prepared to live with Jesus
Fore-ver more.

(In Memory Of My Aunt Mamie)
I Love You And Miss You So
She passed away Dec. 24, 2005

    She now rejoices in Heaven with Mom
    This is the day she lived for
    To be ready to go home to Jesus
    To live with him forever more.

    That Stanza had me in tears right there because in Church last Sunday pastor was talking about Heaven...Ann as much sadness as a death brings us all....you should rejoice...she is with Jesus right now...How lucky is she? I have to say..at times..I'm jealous of the dead because they are with almighty Jesus and all the sons and daughters of God....I understand you will mourn for a long time, as I would too, but you know, there should be a little part of you that is happy, she is away from all this terrible heartache here on Earth and is in the happiest place you can be. She is in a place where fear no longer exsists, tears can not be cried, food can always be ate, and most importantly you can be with Jesus everday...I am so sorry for your loss it must be hard on you to lose another person who fely like a mother..You know everyone here and CC&P will try our best to make you smile.....for one thing, I loved the poem, your style and your words are enough to make someone smile or cry, its amazing! I love you ann!
