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.

An Angel came and took your hand and held it for a while
Then the Lord sat by your side and offered you a smile,
'It's time for you to come' he said, your life on earth is through,
Take my hand don't be afraid i'll take a walk with you,
We'll climb the stairs to heaven to a life thats free from pain,
And when friends and loved ones are ready,
That's when we'll meet again.

REST YOUR WEARY HEAD AND DRIFT OFF INTO DREAMS,
FROLIC IN THE SUNSHINE AND BATHE IN GODS MOONBEAMS.
USE THE STARS AS STEPPING-STONES TO TAKE YOU TO YOUR PEACE,
THE PAIN OF LIFE FORGOTTEN NOW YOU HAVE FOUND RELEASE
WITH OUT RAIN A FLOWER FOLDS,THE PETAL DROP AND DIE,
THERE WAS NO WAY TO SAVE YOU,YOU COULDNT EVEN CRY.
SO WE CRY ALL THE TEARS INSTEAD AS WE MUST LET YOU GO,
TO HEAVEN AND GODS GARDEN TO BLOSSOM AND TO GROW.
THE LITTLE SEED IS PLANTED,YOU'LL BE WATERED EVEY DAY,
THE ANGELS WILL TEND ALL YOUR NEEDS AS IN THEIR ARMS YOU LAY.
YOUR LIFE WILL BE AMAZING NOW AND FULL OF WONDEROUS THINGS,
REST IN PEACE DEAR SWEET DEMOND,GO FLY ON ANGELS WINGS.

As The Sun Came Up This Morning
I Watched You There Below
Your Hearts Seemed Oh So Heavy
But There’s Something You Should Know

I’m Not Gone So Don’t Worry
I’m Just A Step Ahead
And I’m With You Every Single Day
As You Rise Up From Your Bed

I Am The Sun That Warms You
I Am The Moon’s Soft Glow
I Am The Stars That Twinkle
And Light Your Path Below

So When At Times You Miss Me
Just Look For Me I’m There
For You Cannot Hide My Spirit
It Is With You Everywhere.

FOR MY LITTLE ANGEL FRIEND

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

You Will Never Be Forgotten,
You Will Always Be Forever In My Heart.xxx

God Bless You x x

There is a beautiful garden,
In a far away land,
Where God and this sweet angel
Walk hand in hand,
How lucky God is
To have such a treasure
Take care of this angel Lord,
Forever and ever x x

ABUSED ANGELS.........

HOW CAN ANYONE HURT A CHILD SO VERY SMALL
I TOO HAVE MEMORIES OF THIS I CAN RECALL
ATHOUGH THE ABUSE NEVER SEEMS TO END FOR SOME
UNTIL THE ANGELS HEAR YOUR CRIES THEY WILL COME

THEY WILL TAKE EACH CHILD TO THE GARDEN OF LOVE
TO REST WITH THE LORD IN HEAVEN ABOVE
THERE THEY ARE FREE FROM ANYMORE PAIN
ALTHOUGH THIS WILL HAPPEN ONCE AGAIN

FOR EACH CHILD THAT AS SUFFERED ABUSE IN EVERYWAY
I WILL ALWAYS THINK OF YOU EACH AND EVERYDAY
WITH A BROKEN HEART I WILL ALWAYS REMBEMBER YOU ALL
I THANK THE LORD ABOVE FOR HE HEARD YOU ALL CALL

HE TOOK AWAY ALL YOUR SORROW AND ALL YOUR PAIN
SO YOU COULD ALL BE FREE ONCE AGAIN
FROM THE EVIL ONES THAT DID THIS TO YOU
I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT THEY ALL SUFFER TOO

♥ღ♥ Safely Home ♥ღ♥

♥ღ♥ I am safely in Heaven, dear ones:
Oh, so happy and so bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light.

All the pain and grief is over,
Every restless tossing past;
I am now at peace forever,
Safely home in Heaven at last.

And He came Himself to meet me
In that way so hard to tread;
And with Jesus' arm to lean on,
Could I have one doubt or dread?

Then you must not grieve me sorely,
For I love you dearly still;
Try to look beyond earth's shadows,
Pray to trust our Father's will ♥ღ♥

♥ღ♥ Love Anne ♥ღ♥
