Saddness...

Back in June I met a few guys who drove up on their Harley Davidson's. After talking with them they were from a group called Cross Motorcycle Ministries. There was one guy who offered to let me sit on his bike with my boys. My boys and I got a chance to sit on his bike and this guy, Keith, took pictures. He gave me his card to email him to get the pictures. I have been talking to him ever since. He has been dear to my heart and I just found out last night that he was killed in a motorcycle accident on August 30th, 2008. He was only 45. He's name was Keith Wander. He will be missed by many!!! He touched the lives of so many out there. Here is a poem I wrote in memory of someone who inspired me in so many ways. It will be so difficult to keep going knowing he is gone. Of course God will have to get me through this one because I have cried so much it's not funny! I felt as though he was close to a best friend. And now he is gone. We will all miss him and if I am like most we are all still in shock over this TERRIBLE tragedy! You went too soon Keith. Here's to you dear friend......

In Memory Of Keith Wander:
A man of wisdom
Who inspired so many.
Had dreams left to fulfill
And goals left to check off.
He was taken in God's timing
And not of ours.
He believed in God
And I believe He's in Heaven now
Looking down on us all.
Enjoying the beauty of Heaven
Perfect, majestic and whole
Far beyond what we can imagine
Being here on earth
Until we get to Heaven ourselves.
He touched the lives of many
And shared the Love of Christ
To many more.
We will miss your laughter,
You personality, encouragement & prayers.
We will miss so many things about you!
For you will always hold a place so dear
In all of our lives and remain in our hearts forever.
We will ride in the wind with you in memory.
Wish you didn't have to leave so soon Keith!
You will always remain in our hearts.
Thank you for touching our lives
We will miss you and love you.
Until we meet again,
May you Rest in Peace
And enjoy all that Heaven has to offer
Sitting beside the Ruler of the World....Jesus Christ!
