Diedicated to my beautiful Niece

June 21, 1989 - February 16, 2025

Fly High my girl RIP

June twenty -first Nineteen eighty-nine Your father proudly proclaims This baby girl is mine Life was never dull with you around Hope, love and sadness Could always be found Family to you was number one You proved to us many times The way you raised your son You battled demons and won the fight With family and friends Your future was in sight The Angels came on Valentines Day A massive stroke your last fight February sixteenth they led you away Go now my beautiful niece Be with Grandma and Papa Pain is gone now Rest in Peace

It appears after sending this to my nieces mother, there may be some confusion. Yes She battled her demons an d with the help of friends and family won those battles.. However her last battle was a massive stroke. She did not take her meds. I just could not figure a way to incorporate that into my thoughts
