Robert "JR" Held, Jr.

For Robert "JR" Held, Jr., January 5, 1970 - June 9, 2005.

A gentle breeze blew across the land

Two years ago to take a hand

For on the breeze the angels came

Whispering JR, our beloved son's name.

Left behind, a family's tears

Tender memories of the years

Of happiness and love, a life well spent

And now to Heaven a son was sent.

On angel's wings, a blessed flight

A journey beyond, following the light

To those who mourn, a life is gone

But in God's abiding love, is but the dawn.
