Family and Friends

Don’t remember me with sadness,

Don’t remember me with tears,

Remember all the laughter,

We’ve shared throughout the years.

Now I am contented

That my life it was worthwhile,

Knowing as I passed along the way

I made somebody smile.

When you are walking down the street

And you’ve got me on your mind,

I’m walking in your footsteps

Only half a step behind.

So please don’t be unhappy

Just because I’m out of sight,

Remember that I’m with you

Each morning, noon and night.

The family of the late Mr. Eli Ronnie Wood extends its

deepest appreciation in time of our loss. God bless you all for your acts of kindness and expressions of sympathy.

Dear Granddaddy,

There was never a moment where I wasn’t your baby girl,

you were my everything and I was yours. I remember times

sitting with you and grandma laughing and baking cakes.

Oh, how y’all laughter made me feel so at home and safe. I

will always love you and remember the values you set in

me. Until we meet again. I love you Daddy, you are forever

my main man.

Love Diamond

I still can’t believe you’re gone. I’m still trying to take it all

in because I lost the best Daddy in the world. I remember

you used to take me to work with you on Saturdays. I really

enjoyed the time we spent together working on my car and

whenever I needed help you taught me a lot of things I

needed to know as a man and it hurts me that you left on

you and grandma anniversary because I know you didn’t

want to leave that way. We are going to take care of

grandma and make sure that she’s okay until we meet

again. I love you and miss you granddaddy.

Love, Jordan

Dear Granddaddy,

It’s Jalen, the youngest of the three. I didn’t get to hang

around you like Jordan and Diamond but the times I did

have with you I will never forget. I remember the times that

you used to cook me breakfast in the mornings and get me

ready for school. I remember all the times you came to eat

lunch with me for Grandparents Day and all my Park

Warner football games when I was younger. Granddaddy,

you was always there for us and I am going to miss you

until we meet again. I will forever love you.

Love, Jalen
