My cousin Ray was only 19 years old when he passed, by what the local coroner, noted as accidental asphixiation. Ray was a strappling good looking young man, and was popular with the young girls .He was happy and fun and lived life to the fullest. He worked as a brick layer at the time of his death.
Raymond Hodge is the son of Paul and Jessie (Morris)Hodge.
He had a brother Kim Hodge who passed August,1956 of an accidental drowning at the age of 18 months,
and 4 other brothers,,David,,Tom,,Bill,,and Mark.
And 3 sisters,,Joyce,,Patricia,,Paulette.
With a large extended family of nieces, nephews, aunts uncles and cousins, and many friends who were all brokenhearted at the loss of this wonderful young life. Rip cuz, God bless you,,love Nila

Easter Is The Gift
...♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ
Easter is the gift of HOPE
Easter is the gift of PEACE
Easter is the gift of LOVE
Let us rejoice in Him,
Who gives them all.
...♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ ♥ ღ
May God bless you at Easter,
And keep you all year through.
May God give you all the faith it takes,
To make your dreams come true.
May His love and wisdom always help,
To guide you on your way.
May His light shine down upon you now,
To bless your Easter Day.

I thought I saw your face today, in the sparkle of the morning sun.
And then I heard the angel say, "Their work on earth is done."
I thought I heard your voice today, then laugh your hearty laugh.
And then I heard the angel say, "There's peace dear one at last."
I thought I felt your touch today, in the breeze that rustled by.
And then I heard the angel say, "The spirit never dies."
I thought I saw my broken heart, in the crescent of the moon.
And then I heard the angel say, "The Lord is coming soon."
I thought that you had left me, for the stars so far above.
And then I heard the angel say, "They left you with their love."
I thought that I would miss you so, and never find my way.
And then I heard the angel say, "They're with you every day."
The sun, the wind, the moon, the stars, will forever be around,
Reminding you of the love you shared, and the peace they've finally found.

Turning Back Time
Where would you go if we could turn back time?
And, just where, in life, would you stop?
Would you relive some moment that's special to you,
Perhaps say something you had forgot?
For me, if I could I'd be surrounded by family
And tell them how I love them so,
I would say all the things that I could have once said;
But was too late when their time came to go.
Oh, yes, I think of the opportunities I've had
To express understanding and compassion.
How sad that those words just never came out,
The one's I could not seem to fashion.
But, is it really too late to say all the things,
That we failed to imply at the time?
Words that were left hanging on the tips of our tongue,
Can now be relayed through our mind.
Repeat, to yourself, all the words that you kept
And transfer them to those whom you wish.
You won't see them, like you could back in time,
But will be heard by those whom you miss.

i carry your heart with me
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
by E. E. Cummings
. . . REMEMBER ME . . .
I never meant to leave you,
Could I have only stayed;
We would be going on in life,
With all the plans we made.
Now all the hopes and dreams we shared,
Are but sweet memories;
For you to tuck inside your heart,
Now when you remember me.
Remember all the good times,
And all the joy we shared;
Remember how you touched my life,
And how I really cared.
Think back on all the laughter,
And wipe away your tears;
You still have many miles to go,
And still have many years.
Don't look back....look forward,
This day is a brand new start;
And as you travel on in life,
You'll take a bit of my heart.
I never meant to leave you,
But still you'll not be alone;
For as long as my love lives in you,
I'll never really be gone.

♥ღ♥
I see you in the morning
When the sun glows through the haze
As the beauty of a thousand lights
Bring forth a newborn day
In the fragrance of a tender flower
Touched and kissed by morning dew
When its petals spread to seek the sun
It is there that I see you
♥ღ♥
As I look on the horizon
See an eagle take to flight
In all its strength and beauty
I see you in the sky
I can hear you in the silence
Of a summer’s afternoon
As soft warm breeze sweeps over me
Your quietness fills my room
♥ღ♥
I can smell you in the distant rain
As it falls to kiss the ground
The clean and earthly smell of you
Its fragrance does surround
Then as the sun falls softly
And night breeze fills the air
As stars come twinkling from the sky
I see your beauty there
♥ღ♥
Though splendour does surround me
It never will replace
The beauty that my heart does see
When I behold your face
♥ღ♥
