To his smiles, voice, and listening ear we wanted to hold on..... But as the
first snow fell Ronnie was gone......He left.......But wait....... From
another place I hear a voice loud and clear. Look Dad!!!!!Look Mom!!!!! It's
Ron!!!! My dear sweet brother is here....... Here on earth we have birth pains,
much like those of our Mother......As she gave birth to each of us. A sister,
or a brother.......For we too are giving up a child....To a great new world
unknown....We too experience seperation....As God quietly calls for His
own.... On Earth, it's a leaving...In Heaven a coming home...Here it's trials and
sorrow.... But there Christ is on His throne...We'll do most anything... Not
to suffer loss...Yet Jesus gave all that He had....One day on a cross... So
at moments just like these... When tears fall and we think our hearts will
break....We can know that in His arms....Our loved one He'll gently
take.....For any child of God...whose life we get to share in this venture we call
livin....After each "See you later" here...There'll be a Welcome home in Heaven...
As such a child leaves this earth.... our pain we just can't hide...Yet
there's joy and laughter in Heaven...As all there come along his side....There's
much we may not know...But one thing God imparts... Is that He knows each of
us...And He knows us by our hearts.... If God in this imperfect world...Gave
us beauty, Love and many moments of Joy....And once, seventy-nine years ago,
A sweet, sweet baby boy....A husband, brother, father, uncle. Pap and
son...Then surely His Heaven that awaits us must be a glorious one!!!!So let's
praise God for His giving...And allow him His Will in taking...Let's thank Him
for His promises... Knowing, He's never forsaking....He told us, My ways are
not your ways, Nor My thoughts your thoughts, So let's give each and every
moment... Everything we got.....Together Let's continue our journey toward
home...Never failing to reach out for a hand...So when God one day asks each one of
us...if we're ready...We can answer, in His name..... I AM
Dedicated to my family in Love, and Honor of Uncle Ron, inspired by my Mom's
call just after midnight....Dec 5th, when she quietly said. Ronnie just
left. Jackie Perdas.
Ronnie just left!!!!
