He Remembers You

Oh how sad I feel for you 
All the pain you must be going through
I never got the chance to meet uncle Trevor
But the stories you told me I still remember

You may not understand God’s plan
Why he took this loving man
When I called you, hearing how you cry
I wish you didn’t have to say Goodbye

I know this hurt through losing a father
But I cannot imagine what it’s like losing your partner
A lifelong companion and best friend
I pray to God your heart He’ll mend

He may not have remembered much, but this I trust he knew
The unconditional love that was shared with him by you
I know right now the only thing you want to do is cry
Oh I wish you never had to say goodbye

Your loving husband  is sitting around the throne
But know that God will not leave you alone
When uncle Trevor went to Heaven today at 2
All his memories came back and he remembers you

*Dedicated to a very special lady in my life who lost her husband today. He suffered from Alzheimer and did not recognize her anymore. He developed pneumonia and unfortunately did not make it*
