I love and miss you Uncle Junior
I will always remember when you named me "Little Red"
I want to share this song with our family
God only Cries by Diamond Rio
God only cries for the living
'Cause it's the living that are left to carry on
An' all the angels up in Heaven
They're not grieving because they're gone
There's a smile on their faces
'Cause they're in a better place than,
God only cries for the living
'Cause it's the living that are so far from home.
