“We didn’t know that this morning God was going to call your name…In life, we loved you dearlyIn death, we do the sameIt broke our heart to lose youYou didn’t go aloneFor part of us, we went with youThe day God called you homeYou left us beautiful memoriesYour love is still our guideAnd though we cannot see youYou are always by our sideOur family chain is brokenAnd nothing seems the sameBut as God calls us one by oneThe chain will link again.

You gave no one a last farewellNot ever said goodbyeYou were gone before we knew it,And only God knows whyA million times we will miss youA million times we will cryIf love alone could have saved you, you never would have diedWe will meet again somedayI thank God he made you our brother while you were here on earth…You are always loved immensely and never forgottenMay your soul Rest in peace!!!I Miss You, Dada!”
