Karl’s Final Note:

What God Loves

God looked around Heaven and saw an empty space.

He needed to gain an angel to fill that empty space.

God saw I was getting weary and that I needed a little rest.

Life had become a struggle so I had to leave because he loved me best.

My new home is in Heaven where I am surrounded by angels who will keep me close until we meet again.

Love,

Karl Lamont Green

Even though you are my cousin, I have always considered you to be my nephew because, I saw your mom as my sister, not my first cousin. Without a doubt, I will remember your smile and the many things you did to help me. I love you, and I will miss you.

Love, Uncle/cousin Glenn

What makes two brothers relationship special is the way each one remembers the other, when they are apart. I will miss the talks, the laughs, and your texts of daily affirmation. Life changes, memories do not. I will miss you Karl.
