Little did we know that morning
What sorrow the day would bring.
Our loss was great, the shock severe
To part with one we loved so dear.
We could not say our last farewell
Or even say good-bye
For you were gone before we knew
And only God knows why.

We love you and will miss you so much. Corey, Christie and Jake
