The Broken Chain

Matthew Carl Atwood
July 11th. 1968 - July 17th.2006
We little knew that morning
the Lord would call your name,
In life we loved you dearly
in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you
you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you
the day God called you home.
You left us beautiful memories
your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you
you are always by our side.
Our family chain is broken
and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one
the chain will link again.

Hugs Ros.....I know you miss him dearly. They say it gets better with time, but I am not so sure of that. Some of my loved ones still make my heart cry when I think of them and miss them so.

Beautiful tribute. So difficult to loose a child. I continue to think about you whenever I see the wallhanging you made me. One day at a time, and soon, we will all be together in heaven. Hugs and prayers.
