Ike Walker

I’m not gone, I’m still the same person I was before. When you walk down the street, I’m one step behind.

When you watch the television, I still sit by your side. I listen to your conversations,

and laugh at your jokes and smile as you remember the good times.

I’m not gone, I’m the breeze that rustles the trees in our garden.

When you cry, I put my arm around you and I join in when you sing our songs.

I sit at the end of your bed at night, and when you wake up, I’m still there.

I’m not gone, I’m just waiting.

This is not the end, just a new chapter. I dance next to you at parties when you’re happy, I’m happy.

I sit in the back seat of the car –I’m the reflection in the window, and I hold open the door.

I’m not gone, so don’t stop being you, carry on.

If you meet someone new, I’ll still hold your hand. I’m always with you, by your side.

I still breathe in your perfume and run my fingers through your hair.

Soon we’ll be together, but until then, take care.

With our deepest sorrow, to regret to inform you of the passing of Mr. Ike Walker, 66, of Vance, SC.

He departed this life surrounded by his loving family.
