"Today I Thought Of You"
My Dear Son Kenny
I sat and watched a sunset today
The way we once used to do
I recalled the tranquility it brought
Today I thought of you
I watched a little child at play
While others played with him too
I thought of all the times you played
Today I thought of you
I watched a mother leave her child
And walk away from the school
I remembered the times when we did that
Today I thought of you
I watched a wedding taking place
As I sat and observed the bride and groom
I know I'll never share this with you
But today I thought of you
I saw a little girl in a store
Buying candy for her brother too
I remembered you and your sis
Today I thought of you
I sat in a church in the back pew
The family torn in two
They were burying their little boy
Today I thought of you
I saw a cloud up in the sky
The background a beautiful blue
I thought of Heaven and where you are
Today I thought of you
No matter where I'm at
As long as my memories come through
I'll always think of you daily
I'll never stop thinking of you
"If I Could Have A Lifetime Wish,
A Dream That Would Come True,
I'de Pray To God With All My Heart
For Yesterday And You.
A Thousand Words Can't Bring You Back,
I Know Because I've Tried...
Neither Will A Thousand Tears,
I Know Because I've Cried"
Was It Only Yesterday, I Last Saw
And Touched Your Face?
Or Heard Your Voice ,
Or Your Laughter My Ears Did Grace?
Time Can Play Such Tricks, Here Then Gone.
With This Empty Void I Try To Go On.
Life Is Such A Fragile Thing,
We Sometimes Take For Granted,
Then That Someone Is Gone,
And Time Can't Be Recanted.
If I Could Change Today and
Go Back In Time,
I Would Hold You Closer And
Try To Capture Every Moment,
And I'd Thank God Everyday
That You Were Mine...
But It Is Not To Be. I Had To Let You Go.
In Each Breath I Take I Remember,
And Oh How My Heart Aches So.
But One Day In The Future,
Together We Will Be,
And Your Sweet Smile Forever I Will See.
So Wait For Me My Son,
Just For A Little While,
And One Day We'll Be Together,
Then God Will Give Me Back My Smile...

Dear Kenny,
The years just flew by, I can't believe I haven't heard your voice in 11 years. It does not get easier it's just that we learn to live with the sorrow of missing you.
I miss you so much Kenny and I still pray for you to be happy, Well I guess you know what I pray because I know you still come to visit... Buffy can feel you around her so much and I still can feel you touch the back of my neck But I just want to see and touch you...
I Love You So Much My Son My Angel Kenny.
It still hurts but I promised you that I would try ,
And I am still here Kenny, I'm trying everyday.
Please Ken tell Everyone there that I miss everyone of you all...I Miss You most Though, I think they
(and You) know that.
I will be seeing you someday and I know that I will be so happy to see you again but then I'll be missing Buffy & Logan , I wonder if it will hurt this much
over there or is being there different...I wonder if it hurts less? I hope that you never hurt this much Kenny.
Mom

"Smile"
sung by Nat "King" Cole
Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky,
you'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

"If Tears Could Build A Stairway "
If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane
We would walk right up to Heaven
And bring you back again
No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
You were gone before we knew it
And only God knows why
Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No on will ever know
But know we know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store
Since you’ll never be forgotten
We pledge to you today
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you’ll always stay
