Don't judge me for how I left this world

Remember the love I gave

A lot of grief will follow me

For the decision that I made.

 Changes appear in everyone's life

Some good some bad

The one I chose for myselfMade

 everyone very sad. But in time the memories

will heal the hurt of hearts

And my presence will be felt by all

With an inner peace.

 Remember me when the sun is bright

And laughter fills the airAnd a moonlit night

 and a whisper of windWill tell you I am there.

Don't look down on my family

Or fill their hearts with blame

For my leaving them without good-byes

Has left them so much pain.

 If I could go back in time

I would say a last good-bye

I would tell them to look to tomorrow

And for me please do not cry.XX

Our son, Rodney, became an angel
on February 12th 2004
.

I shall never forget that sad evening.
I received a knock on the door.
From the moment I spoke to the police officer,
my life has never been the same at all.

It took me forever to accept what
I knew that I could not believe.
I became a mother going through motions,
but I'll never learn how to grieve.

No one could tell me how to live my life
when my precious son was gone.
I'd never see his smiling face again.
Oh the days are hard & the nights long!

I'd never again hear his beautiful laughter.
Or tell him how much he was loved.
Oh I live without my dear precious son ...
who now lives in the Heaven's above.

Oh every time the door opens or the phone rings,
I pray it's an end to this nightmare!
I just wish that my son could come home ...
Spreading his love & charm everywhere!

Oh yes, he was loved by everyone he knew.
No one was a stranger that he ever met!
He would do about anything to help others.
A face of friendship he'd never forget.

He has a personality to win anyone's heart.
Oh I've heard so many people say.
He touched the lives of those he met in life ...
As he made friends all along the way.

Oh yes he was a special & precious son.
Who touches my heart in his way.
For he knows that
I will never be whole again ...
For a part of me left with him that day!

And as I think of him this moment.
As I do everyday waking day.
I long for that part of me
to hear his voice...
And hug him in a Mom's own way!

God won't you Please, Kiss my Angel Goodnight




This memorial site was created
out of all the Love
I have for my son.
I wanted to do something very special for Rodney;
So, I started making the Memorial site
so that Rodney's memory would live on forever.

A Mother's greatest fear after losing
a child is that others will forget them.

For all who knew Rodney and for those who never got the chance,
Please take a few moments and visit My son,
Rodney Heath

"WHEN I'M GONE"

When I come to the end of my journey
And I travel my last weary mile,
Just forget if you can, that I ever frowned
And remember only the smile.
Forget unkind words I have spoken;
Remember some good I have done.
Forget that I ever had heartache
And remember I've had loads of fun.
Forget that I've stumbled and blundered
And sometimes fell by the way.
Remember I have fought some hard battles
And won, ere the close of the day.
Then forget to grieve for my going,
I would not have you sad for a day,
But in summer just gather some flowers
And remember the place where I lay,
And come in the shade of evening
When the sun paints the sky in the west
Stand for a few moments beside me
And remember only my best.
