Tomorrow is my friends funeral he was killed in a roadside bomb in Iraq serving our country
He did not deserve to die, neither did those 4 other people
He will always be remembered for being such a brave lad who really touched the hearts of so many people, he was one of those people that you instantly liked as soon as you met him him. We have had some good laughs together, especially when we were younger and a bit mischievous drinking in the alley ways behind his house and running away from his mum. She never did spot the 20+ of us running down the street!!
Or the time he drew me a picture of the monsters he saw in his bedroom, when he was about 14!!
Its only now Adam that i watch the footage of our serving soldiers in Iraq that i realise just how brave you were, you will always be remembered... ALWAYS xx
Tomorrow the church will be packed just for you, so many people adored you, you were everyone's friend and we will all never forget you!!
Rest In Peace Adam, see you soon
A FRIEND
To you, my dearest family, Some things I'd like to say
But first of all to let you know, that I arrived okay
I'm writing this from Heaven,where I dwell with God above,
Where there's no more tears or sadness, there is just Eternal Love.
Please do not be unhappy,just because I'm out of sight
Remember that I'm with you,every morning, noon, or night
That day I had to leave you,when my life on earth was through
God picked me up and hugged me,and He said, I welcome you.
It's good to have you back again,you were missed while you were gone
As for all your dearest family, they'll be here later on
I need you here so badly,as part of my big plan
There's so much that we have to do,to help our mortal man.
Then God gave me a list of things,He wished for me to do
And foremost on that list of mine,is to watch and care for you
And I will be beside you, every day, each week and year
And when you're sad, I'm standing thereto wipe away your tears.
And when you lie in bed at night,the day's chores out to flight
God and I are close to you in the middle of the night
When you think of my life on Earth,and all those living years
Because you're only human,they are bound to bring the tears.
But do not be afraid to cry,it does relieve the pain
Remember there would be no flowers unless there was some rain
But one thing is for certain,though my life on Earth is over
I am closer to you now than I ever was before.
And to my very many friends, trust God He knows what's best
I'm still not far away from you, I'm just beyond the crest
There are rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb
But together we can do it,taking one step at a time.
It was always my philosophy,and I'd like it for you too
That as you give unto the world,so the world will give to you
If you can help somebody,who's in sorrow or in pain
Then you can say to God at night,my day was not in vain
And now I am contented ,that my life it was worthwhile
Knowing as I passed along the way,I made somebody smile
So if you meet somebody,who is down and feeling low
Just lend a hand to pick them up,as on your way you go.
When you are walking down the street,and you've got me on your mind
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind
And when you feel a gentle breeze, or the wind upon your face
That's me giving you a great big hug, or just a soft embrace
And when it's time for you to go,from that body, to be free
Remember you're not going, You are coming here to me
And I will always love you,from that land way up above
We will be in touch again soon
Rest In Peace Adam... We all miss you!! xx
