This page started out for my sweet Granny... then additions began to mount up. It is so awful to loose people you love. You wonder how in the world people survive it. God grace is sufficient... He gives Grace when Grace is needed. He is still on the throne. I could not believe it when I had to add my sweet son's name to this list. TO MY GRANNY (Myrtle Taylor) STILL THE WIND BENEATH MY WINGS!! YOU ARE SO MISSED - after so many years my heart still aches for your sweet face and voice. Oh granny, if you had been here when Les, Ray and Josh died... God saw the future and knew you would rather be there. Les, I felt my heart breaking when you left us, just 6 days before your birthday (a birthday we shared) and just 5 short months later you left us too Ray and my heart broke even more. Together the 2 of them would make your sides ache with laughter. AND NOW... there is a greater void in the world and in my heart. One without the grace of God I will not survive. God says He will not put more on you than you can bear. Josh I know if you could talk to me now you would tell me what a great place it surely is! You would tell me if you could: "We're having a great time - wish you were here" I miss you and until I am there with you I will hold you in my heart. The best is yet to be. I will be there when GOD whispers my name. I love you so much. My life is changed forever and will never be the same. Waiting.... Update 4/30/00 - Dad has now joined in the Heavenly ranks. What a joyous reunion in Heaven. After Jesus... his mom met him at the gates as well.

POEM BY JOSHUA PAUL

This was written by my son at age 10 -- right after granny went home to be with the Lord. Josh was very close to her and he took it pretty hard. All of my kids did. She was the backbone of my family. We felt the loss very deeply. Josh at 21 years old still talked about her quite often. (Josh is now talking to her face to face) "The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away... Blessed be the name of the Lord"

MY GRANNY and ME My granny and me are special together; My granny and me will love each other forever. My granny and me were also good friends; My granny and me were friends to the end. My granny and me she was a great poet; My granny and me she could draw too and we both knew it. My granny and me she was also a great singer; My granny and me her voice was like a stinger. My granny and me they say she really did die; My granny and me in my heart that's a lie. Written by Joshua Paul 1990

"I believe that the Bible is the best gift that God has ever given to man. All the good from the Savior of the world is communicated to us through this book. I have been driven many times to my knees by the overwheling conviction that I had nowhere else to go." Abraham Lincoln's testimony ~ 16th President of the United States. And all I can say to that is AMEN!
