Jim D Regal

Jim D Regal

In loving memory of my grandson James Regal, who died August 26, 2005.

Why did you have to go

So young I just don't know,

Why things happen half the time

Without reason, without rhyme.

Strong, caring young man

Son, brother, grandson

Makes no sense to me

I just have to believe.

Jim flew up to Heaven on the wings of angels

By the clouds and stars

And passed where no one sees,

And he walks with Jesus

And his loved ones waiting

And I know he's smiling saying

Don't worry 'bout me.

Loved ones he left behind

Just trying to survive,

And understand the why

Feeling so lost inside.

It's hard to say goodbye

His picture in my mind

There will always be times I'll cherish

And I won't cry 'cause

Jim flew up to Heaven on the wings of angels

And walks with Jesus.

Loved and missed

More and more each day.
