My Dream My Daughter
My darling daughter you came and stood by my bed
You said mom it's ok, don't be sad
I'm ok you see, I am whole and free
God said for me to tell you that he will take care of me
I'm happy for I see God, Butterflies, Flowers and Trees
And I see the love that you have for me
Mom don't cry for long because soon we will be
togeather in our fathers heavenly home
Just remember you have my little sister so you are not alone
She loves you as much as she loved me
So mom take care and don't feel so alone
I'll talk to you later when we all come home

Son-in-Law you'll never be
Son-in-law others may see, but it will always be Son to me.
When you took my daughter by the hand and stood before God and man, and promised you would keep her through sickness and health, you became my son.
You stood beside her and held her hand to the very end.
You told her you would love her until your dieing day.
And that you could not live without her being by your side, that you loved her that much and then seven weeks later you laid down and died.
You have kept your promise that you would never leave her side,
that you would Love her now, forever and always.
Now you are standing by her side holding her hand in God's heavenly land.
So Son-in-law it will never be..for you will always be a son to me
For now, forever and always
