I wish you would of never left I wish so many things but nothing is going to change what happened to you baby... Nothing's going to bring you back to me and our families!!!

The Dash Poem
I read of a man who stood to speak
At the funeral of a friend
He referred to the dates on his tombstone
From the beginning to the end
He noted that first came the date of his birth
And spoke the following date with tears,
But he said what mattered most of all
Was the dash between those years
For that dash represents all the time
That he spent alive on earth.
And now only those who loved him
Know what that little line is worth.
For it matters not how much we own;
The cars, the house, the cash,
What matters is how we live and love
And how we spend our dash.
So think about this long and hard.
Are there things you’d like to change?
For you never know how much time is left,
That can still be rearranged.
If we could just slow down enough
To consider what’s true and real
And always try to understand
The way other people feel.
And be less quick to anger,
And show appreciation more
And love the people in our lives
Like we’ve never loved before.
If we treat each other with respect,
And more often wear a smile
Remembering that this special dash
Might only last a little while.
So, when your eulogy is being read
With your life’s actions to rehash
Would you be proud of the things they say
About how you spent your dash?

I am VERY PROUD of how Antwain spent his dash!
for the 14 yrs we where together he was a man that would do anything for you within his power. He helped friends, family, neighbors & even strangers!
He loved all his niece's and nephew's like they where his own.
His DASH was a great one that came to a end to soon! I am grateful that out of the 29 yrs he was on this earth 14 of them where spent with me and my family!!!
He will be forever missed !!
