If Tomorrow Starts Without Me
"If tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and
find your eyes all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
the way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
that an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
all those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye,
For all my life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do,
it seemed almost impossible,
that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all that we shared,
And all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss some tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you."
Today your life on earth is past,
but here life starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last,
and since each day is the same way,
There's no longing for the past.
So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart "
»§«·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,»§«.»§«·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.»§«>
>If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.
Happy moments, praise God.
Difficult moments, seek God.
Quiet moments, worship God.
Painful moments, trust God.
Every moment, thank God.

In Loving Memory
Paul William Rudy
August 12, 1956 - June 1, 2009
Paul passed from this earth into the loving arms of his Heavenly Father and the presence of his beloved Savior, Jesus, at 2:10 this morning.
I had arrived home yesterday afternoon. Paul was not visibly aware of me, and he was breathing very heavily. With his sleep apnea, he would occasionally stop breathing, then restart within half a minute or so.
All evening, his family and some church folks talked to him, read Scripture to him, and listened to soft Christian music. Before bed, our daughters and I prayed with him. I stayed up till after 11:00 pm, reading Revelation 21-22 and 2 Timothy 4:7-8 to him, encouraging him about heaven and that he had fought a good fight and finished his course. I fell asleep, but woke up around 1:15 when I didn't hear his heavy breathing any more. I just prayed that maybe it was only his sleep apnea, but he never breathed another earthly breath. Ah, but he is breathing heaven's air now!
We will meet with Bruce Haase, the funeral director this afternoon. It does appear at this time that his viewing will be Wednesday evening, June 3 at Anchor Baptist Church, 315 Sumner St., Genoa City, WI...
and his funeral will be at 2:30 pm, Thursday, June 4 at the Haase, Derrick, Lockwood Funeral Chapel on Legion Drive in Twin Lakes, WI.
We want to have blank journals at both places for people to write their memories of Paul and ways God has used his life to influence theirs.
We will post more as it's finalized.
Thank you all for your prayers for our family at this time.
Elaine
