Hello, my wonderful and amazing loves!
Yesterday, my mom, little sister Nico, Derron, and I went to Tabitha's wake. It was the last time we got to see Tabitha. It was heartbreaking to see her laying in a casket... Today, was Tabitha's funeral. It was a very beautiful funeral. The Pastor and his church did an amazing job! I love the song they sang, too!
My sister and I was fortunate enough to give a tribute at Tabby's funeral. Thank you so much to Barb for allowing us to speak. It was an honor. I still can't believe she's gone. I will miss her so much! She was so young, only 24 years old, and she had so much life in her left. But I guess God wanted her close to him. I wrote this poem for her funeral. I love you sweet, Angel (Tabitha)!
For Our Angel, Tabitha (Tabby)
I’m honestly up here and I don’t know what to say--
I remember when we were younger and when we all used to play.
We used to do the cha-cha slide like every single day--
And we would go to the skating rink every Sunday.
We grew up with each other and went to the same school--
We would even hang out and meet up at the pool.
Together at our first concert we all went--
And all of the family holidays together we spent.
Tabby, dear Angel, you were always so sweet--
I remember all the candy we got from trick or treat.
We went bowling together and we even did cheer--
That’s why it’s so hard not to have you here.
We were all close, we all loved each other--
We all had a bond like no other.
It will be hard not to see your beautiful, smiling face--
And all the memories we have together, time couldn’t erase.
And though you’re not here, and though you’ve passed away--
Forever in our hearts you will always stay.
I know you’re in heaven looking down on us all--
Heaven’s got an angel and we love you and miss you sweet angel, that’s all.
This is see you later, this isn’t goodbye--
Because in our hearts and through our memories, your spirit will never die.

It was SO nice seeing the family - Barb, Mr. Dick, Rachael, Jeff, and Jesus. I've been wanting to see them ever since I heard about Tabby. I love them all so much! It was also nice seeing Donna, Jennifer, Kyla, Ashley, and Brittany. Seeing the family is always a great thing but it's unfortunate that it had to be for a funeral.
May you rest in paradise/peace sweet, Tabitha! Our memories together, I will forever cherish. And you will always be in my heart. Watch over us sweet, Angel! You were a light in this world and you exemplified beauty and grace! We love you!
Hope you enjoyed the pics and post!
With love,
