Shawn Benjamin Slater

Shawn Benjamin Slater, September 1, 1987 to September 12, 2005

By Berdie SlaterRemembering is not difficult.Sometimes I'd hope it was true,That five years would not have passed...I'd now be talking with you.Today is that one special dayThat only you and I can share.Together we were; once 23 years,That your life was mine to bear.Happy Birthday Shawn Benjamin!I say it with memory and tears.I rejoice to know where you reside;In Christ 'till His day draws near.I sing "Happy Birthday" again.Beside your marker and grave.Greater is the day of one's death than...Birth, except when you're saved.Awaiting that Day of Reunion with Our Loved Ones already gone on before...
