Tony Ishmon, 39, the grandfather of Demond Reed, wept into the open casket at Shiloh Temple in
Minneapolis on Monday night. When Ishmon broke down, he was ushered out of the sanctuary. Before the
service, he said he was still shocked by his grandson’s death. “It just doesn’t seem real,”
he said.
Most of the hundreds of people at the funeral did not know Demond Reed, 4, who was beaten to death
in a north Minneapolis duplex where he had been staying with his jailed father’s cousin. But they
came to mourn a life lost so young and to help their community work past yet another violent death.

The Lord needed a flower
and that flower was you
so he picked you up from down here
and up and up you flew
He planted you in his garden
he said 'You'll stay here now with me'
and there you'll stay away from harm
the prettiest flower you'll always be
(unknown)

I see a beautiful rainbow.
In the sky above.
It's my angels way of telling me..
That my angel sends their love.
The colours are so beautiful with...
Red, yellow and blue
I can see a rainbow, can you see it too?
The rainbow goes across the sky.
Sent down from my angel way up high.
It's my angels way of letting me know.
How much they love and miss me so.
So if you see a rainbow..
Count all the colours with love.
And just remember who sent it.
For it was my angel in heaven above.

When i see a bright star shining in the sky
I will no longer wonder why!
I will picture you sailing to a distant shore
Rainbows, sunbeams, fountains clear
Will always remind me that you are near
When i say my prayers at night
Whisper in my ear goodnight
Till we meet again angel
I will always remember you

♥ღ♥ You're my Angel ♥ღ♥
♥ღ♥ You're an Angel that nobody can see,
Still an Angel is what you are to me
An angel from heaven is what you are
In my sky you're definitely a heavenly star
You're an angel with beauty & grace
You're so kind & sweet,
you have an angel’s face
You have a pair of angel’s wings
Happiness and joy are just some things
That an angel can give
In my heart & mind is where you're living
You have hair as soft as the white clouds
A guardian angel is what I have gotten
Your eyes are like sapphires that shine bright
When everything is dark, you give me light
You're an angel that gives me a reason to live
You're an angel that teaches me to give
You're an angel that teaches me the right things to say
You're my angel & Ill always care
You're my angel & you know Ill always be there ♥ღ♥

Precious Child
by Karen Taylor Good
In my dreams, you are alive and well
Precious child, precious child
In my mind, I see you clear as a bell
Precious child, precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart, there is hope
'Cause you are with me still
In my heart, you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
In my plans, I was the first to leave
Precious child, precious child
But in this world, I was left here to grieve
Precious child, my precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart there is hope
And you are with me still
In my heart you live on
Always there, never gone
Precious child, you left too soon,
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
God knows I want to hold you,
See you, touch you
And maybe there's a heaven
And someday I will again
Please know you are not forgotten until then
In my heart you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
FLY FREE.....................
