Wish I could wrap my arms around Kip and give him one last hug.
Steph, Lynn, Corky, Chris and Teresa: Though I can’t feel your pain, I do share your sadness, I hope this might bring comfort to all those who remain behind. May Love & Light be with each of you, Shell
God Saw You Getting Tired
God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be,
He wrapped you in His loving arms and whispered, “Come to me.”
…you suffered much is silence, your spirit did not bend.
You faced your pain with courage until the very end.
You tried so hard to stay with us; your fight was not in vain.
God took you to His loving home, and freed you from your pain.
A golden heart stopped beating; two working hands at rest.
God broke our own hearts to prove to us He only takes the best.
Kipper is gone, this is sad but true. He no longer feels the pain of mortal life, but sits nestled in the arms of a loving supreme being. Though we have grown apart through adulthood, my mind recalls fond memories of kip, making me wish desperately that we had remained closer over time… Its love not life that’s stronger than death, and only time can move forward unscathed. In my mind, and in my heart, kip will reside until we meet again in the certain Resurrection of Christ.
John/Deanna thank you so much. he was so fun to grow up with he was my hero and friend. I will miss him.
Kip, it’s been 3 months. I miss you every day. I miss our Saturday calls and our talks about our Wildcats. I love you and miss you so much
