Please Don'T Drink and Drive
The day before Mothers Day in 1983 - My mama my daddy my sister and me - Were on our
way into town to buy a gift for Mom - Little did we know this day the Lord for us would come
One minute I was in the car as happy as could be - Then I woke up soon after that with Jesus
holding me - My mama was the only one the Lord allowed to live - He said He didn't take her
because she has so much to give - It was a senseless accident - we didn't have to die - The
family we had left behind just wanted to know why - But as the Lord says in His word His will
must be done - He also promises us some day we all will live as one - I can't begin to tell you
what it's like up here - Since we came we have not seen one person shed a tear - The Lord
has given each of us a special job to do - Daddy, me and Kristen are watching over you - I
have a message from my heart - please don't drink and drive - If that man had used good
judgement we would be alive - But Jesus said we must forgive and do not hold a grudge -
Remember this my loved ones - God alone will judge - So please be comforted by this - We
are all ok - We're waiting here to welcome you on that special day.
In Loving Memory Of
Bill, Karen and Kristen McKellar

Joan McKellar Carroway
