 5 years ago
Today

My daddy passed away

Jessie Joseph Smith

Sept 16 to July 11, 2006

.. I think of  my daddy often .. 

I did not remember the exact day .. 
Until
 My sister posted a comment

  I was reminded ..

That exactly 5 yrs ago .. 

My dad died .. 

We visited with Dawne and Ray ..
On the way to the funeral

They poured their Ministry
Of
Deliverance and Healing
Over our lives

We are healthier .. because of that visit .. 

God healed wounded area's 

Deep within our lives

That were damaged .. 

Today we are stronger 

Because of what we learned back then .. 

5 yrs later.. 

We can see the difference .. 

I love you my dear friends :)

 I  honor 
My Dad today .. 

With remembrance .. 

He loved us all 
In his own special way .. 

He never forgot my birthday ..
Never forgot to send me a card
It wasn't filled with fancy words
Just love
That was something 
He could afford

When he visited

We talked a lot about family .. 
He made the effort to visit

He loved his family .. 

He was faithful to
His father.. 

Visiting as often as he could 
And 
Kept a relationship with his sister .. 

I never heard him speak bad about either of them 

Or 

Complain about his trips
 Or
 Family time

Life is short
Live today
There is no time 
To rewind


I am glad 
I forgave him
For not knowing
How to be a dad
When I was young
I was a sad child
And did not learn
How to have fun


But 
I 
Learned 
To Love
And 
How 
To Live
This is what 
Happens
When you 
Learn
To Forgive

 Today I can know
My dad 
Is in Heaven
He has God's Eternal Reward

Clearer .. My Daddy would have given you the shirt off of his back
He was a very hard worker .. and loved to cook .. And a Very handsome Man to look at .. I have come to love him more and more each year ..
There are good memories .. and they drown out the sound of the ones that caused fear in my childhood.. Daddy I am healing .. I wish you could see me now.. I look forward to one day being with you in heaven ..
I love you your daughter Lisa Kay Smith .. I grew up into a woman I believe you would be proud of.. I know I learned to be so Proud to call you Daddy .. LisaMe!
Lois Smith .. I love you for showing my Daddy he was worthy of Love <3 span="">
