My Sister: A Tribute To An Angel Baby





ANGEL BABY

Here is a tribute to my older sister who I never got a chance to know on this earth, but will stay in my heart forever.

Christine Rees
was born September 22, 1979 and returned home September 22, 1979.


If Tears Could Build a Stairway

If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane
We would walk right up to heaven
And bring you back again

No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
You were gone before we knew it
And only God knows why

Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know

But now we know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store

Since you'll never be forgotten
We pledge to you today
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you'll always stay

Happy 29th Birthday Sis.
We will Always Love you.
Families are Forever

What a sweet poem. I didn't know about your sister. And what a great way to remember her!
