In loving memory of our beloved Justin Charles Slater

who passed away one year ago today, June 20, 2007

and

Happy Birthday, Justin

June 16, 1981

If tears could build a stairway,

And memories were a lane,

I would walk right up to heaven

To bring you home again.

No farewell words were spoken,

No time to say goodbye.

You were gone before I knew it,

And only God knows why.

My heart still aches in sadness

And secret tears still flow,

What it meant to lose you,

No one will ever know.
