Since Heaven has become your Home
I sometimes feel I'm so alone;
and though we now are far apart
you hold a big piece of my heart.
I never knew how much I'd grieve
when it was time for you to leave;
or just how much my heart would ache
from that one fragment you would take.
God lets this tender hole remain
reminding me we'll meet again;
and one day all the pain will cease
when He restores this missing piece.
He'll turn to joy my every tear
with thoughts of you I hold so dear;
and they'll become my special way
to treasure our Reunion Day.

(While remembering Mom, I decided to add a few more people very dear to my heart. 1st Pic: my brother, Dillard "Dee" Smith - passed away 4/24/91; me; & my Mom, Elizabeth Mattie Wilder Sizemore - passed away 2/5/01. 2nd Pic: my sister, Elva Jeweleen Ayers Hormann - lives in Missouri; me; & my sister, Pattie Sue Ayers Fee - passed away 10/25/06. 3rd Pic: my Mom; me; & my Dad, Roscoe "Pappy" Sizemore - passed away 4/23/72. I have 5 more bothers passed on: Belve, Wilce, Walter, Junior & Raymond [all Sizemores] and 3 more sisters: Ethel Sizemore Ridner; Clara Sizemore Frey; & Beulah Sizemore. I don't have pics of them with me right now, but they're dear to my heart, too. And along with Jeweleen, I have 1 more sibling still living: my brother, Melvin Smith - Berea. I love them all! If you kept count, I'm child #13 & the baby of them all! Be a blessing & be blessed! Susie Sizemore)
