Homegoing Celebration for
Mr. Cleveland Owens Jr “Chay Baby” October 9, 1944 ~ July 4, 2014
I gave you my love, and you can only guess How much you’ve given me in happiness. I thank you for the love that you have shown, But now it is time I traveled on alone. So grieve for me a while, if grieve you must, Then let your grief be comforted by trust. It is only for a while that we must part, So treasure the memories within your heart. I won’t be far away for life goes on, And if you need me, call and I will come. Though you can’t see or touch me, I will be near, And if you listen with your heart, you’ll hear, All my love around you soft and clear. And then, when you come this way alone, I’ll greet you with a smile and say, “Welcome Home.”
Acknowledgment The family of Cleveland “Chay Baby” Owens Jr., would like to Thank each of you for your support and all acts of kindness Shown to them during the death of their loved one. May God Bless you.

Because The Angels Came No more grief, sorrow; no more suffering or pain. No there is everlasting peace; because the angels came. Only GOD knows what is best and He gently holds my hand. Guiding me to a better place; because the angels came. When the sun rises tomorrow; and I answer not my name, Please don’t cry...rejoice with me; because the angels came. I now can rest in peace; as I never knew could before. I answered the gently knock; of the angels at my door. By Hannah McCarty
