Andrew (A.J.) Smith

IN MEMORIAM

In loving memory of our beloved Andrew (A.J.) Smith who passed away 10 years ago today, February 21st, 2016

If tears could build a stairway,

And memories were a lane,

We would walk right up to Heaven

And bring you home again.

No farewell words were spoken,

No time to say goodbye.

You were gone before we knew it,

And only God knows why.

Our hearts still ache in sadness,

And secret tears still flow.

What it meant to lose you,

No one can ever know.

But now we know you want us,

To mourn for you no more,

To remember all the happy times

Life still has much in store.

Since you'll never be forgotten,

We pledge to you today,

A hallowed place within our hearts,

Is where you'll always stay.

Sadly missed by,

Mom, Dad, Heather and Family
