Michael Paul ErnestBAGWELLPassed away peacefully on Friday 3rd June at home, aged 87 years. Devoted husband of Joan. Loving dad of Christine, Teresa & Trevor. Cherished grandad of Stephanie, Dominic, Deborah, Natalie & James. Great grandad of Natasha, Rocco, Finn, Tiaan, Isla, Molly & Max. Never Forgotten You'll never be forgotten That simply cannot be. As long as I am living I'll carry you with me. Safely tucked within my heart Your light will always shine; A glowing ember never stilled, Throughout the end of time. No matter what the future brings, Or what may lie ahead, I know that you will walk with me Along the path I tread. So rest my angel, be at peace And let your soul fly free. One day I'll join your glorious flight For all eternity. **************************** He only takes the Best God saw he was getting tired, And a cure was not to be, So he put his arms around him, And whispered "Come with me", With tearful eyes we watched him suffer, And saw him fade away, Although we love him dearly, We could not make him stay, A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working hands to rest, God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
