It breaks our hearts to lose you,
but you did not go alone.
A part of us went with you, the day God took you home.
If tears could build a stairway, and heartaches make a lane,
we’d walk our way to heaven and bring you back again.
In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still,
in our hearts you hold a place no one could ever fill.
Rest Easy My Son
