In Memoriams A Loving Daughter, Mother, Sister, Aunt and Baba KASHA SIMPKINS miss you so much my Darling. I think of you every hour of every day. I know you are in Heaven with Cod, Jesus and all the Angels and you are looking down on me.

If my Christmas Birthday starts without me, and I'm not there to see, If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me; I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today, While thinking of the many things we didn't get to say. I know how much you love me, as much as I love you. Morris Ostroff, age 93 of Rosenhayn, passed away on Thursday, December 22, 2016 at home. He is survived by his loving wife of 65 years, Helyn (Popovsky) Ostroff, daughter Shelley Brown-stein (Marc), son Robert Ostroff (Beth), grandchildren; Dara Scalora (Sal), Steven Brownstein and Austin Ostroff.

He was among the first troops assigned to Japan prior to the armistice, where he served with the And each time that you think of me, I know you'll miss me too; But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand, That an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand, And said my place was ready, in heaven far above, And that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love.

But as I turned to walk away, a tear fell from my eye. For all my life, I'd always thought I didn't want to die. I had so much to live for, so much yet to do, It seemed almost impossible that I was leaving you. I thought of all the yesterdays, the good ones and the bad, I thought of all the love we share and all the fun we had. If I could relive yesterday, just even for a while, I'd say good-bye and kiss you and maybe see you smile.

But then I fully realized, that this could never be, For emptiness and memories would take the place of me. And when I thought of worldly things I might miss come tomorrow, I thought of you, and when I did, my heart was filled with sorrow. But when I walked through heaven's gate, I felt so much at home When God looked down and smiled at me from his great golden throne, He said "This is eternity and all I've promised you. Today for life on earth is past, but here it starts anew. I promised no tomorrow, but today will always last.

And since each day's the same, there's no longing for the past. But you have been so faithful, so trusting and so true Though there were times you did some things, you knew you shouldn't do. you have been forgiven and now at last you're free. So won't you take my hand and share my life with me? So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart, For every time you think of me, I'm right here in your heart. jou Will Be Tore-ier in My Heart.

Someone Is Missing at Christmas Let this be a loving reminder That some is missing today Someone our hearts still hold onto As we travel alone life 's way. Someone who made life so special for all those who gather here. Someone who made life so special, for all those who gather here. Someone who wont be forgotten But cherished from year to year. And now as we pause to remember.

Let us all fondly recall, How dearly each of us loved her. And how she loved us all! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Sadly Missed Always Remembered and Forever in Our Hearts Love, All Your Family Friends oied and Missed "By jour Husband, fJerry.
