Nadine & Jenna Blackford
Cathy & Casey,
Jenna & I are so saddened by Jeff's passing. He was a wonderful, loving man. Although we did not see him often, we have some good memories especially our two trips with all three of you to Panama City. I wish we lived closer so we could help you through this time. May God wrap his arms around and help you through all of this. We will keep you both, Sarah and Jerry and all of Jeff's family in our prayers.
This is a thoughtful poem that was read by a friend at my Dad's funeral,
GOD SAW YOU WERE GETTING TIRED
AND A CURE WAS NOT TO BE,
SO HE PUT HIS ARMS AROUND YOU
AND WHISPERED, “COME WITH ME.”
WITH TEARFUL EYES WE WATCHED YOU LEAVE
AND SAW YOU FADE AWAY.
ALTHOUGH WE LOVED YOU DEARLY
WE COULD NOT MAKE YOU STAY.
A ‘GOLDEN HEART’ STOPPED BEATING,
WORKING HANDS PUT TO REST;
GOD BROKE OUR HEARTS TO PROVE TO US,
HE ONLY TAKES THE BEST.
Love to all of you - Nadine & Jenna
