The James Mickey Powell Family

Angels are among us always! *************************************** We are blessed to have so many!

Thursday, October 2, 2008 - Jackie Powell

Things have been very busy here. We are still working on selling Tickets for the raffle. We will be drawing the 3 winning tickets October 4th at the Houston Raceway Park.

I almost have my house back together, still no phone, so if you need to call me call my cell.

Work has slowed down, but we are hanging in there. I guess everyone is feeling the pressure of todays market.

The kids are doing good. Everyone is recovered from the storm and we feel blessed that we are all safe and no major damage to our homes.

There are days that are still long, and the nights even longer. I can't believe that it has been almost 10 months that Mickey has been gone, I miss him so much. I find comfort in knowing that he would be proud of the work we are doing for the foundation. I know that he is looking down on us and smiling, because we are helping others and that was what he always did.

I hope everyone is doing fine.

Love to all.

BROTHER MICKEY

IT WAS DECEMBER 10TH,2007,
WHEN MY BROTHER MICKEY
WENT TO HEAVEN

HE WAS ONLY HERE TO AGE 54,
NOT MANY PEOPLE HAS DONE
AS MUCH OR MORE

ONE WOULD THINK THAT HE HAD
GODS CALL
THE WAY HE LOVED AND CARED FOR ALL

HE WAS AN ANGEL,SOME WOULD SAY,
BUT WHAT I LOVED ABOUT HIM, HE WAS
A GOOD MAN EVERYDAY

AT HIS FUNERAL, OH THERE WAS MANY,
A GREAT TRIBUTE TO THE MAN THAT GAVE PLENTY

AND NOW,THE PAIN WILL BE NO MORE,
FOR HE HAS WALKED THRU HEAVENS DOOR

FOR ALL THE METAL THAT MICKEY SOLD,
I BET HE`S SMILE`N AND PLAYING WITH GOLD

I WAS SAD, BUT HAPPY TO KNOW
WHERE MY BROTHER MICKEY`S SOUL WOULD GO

HERE`S A WISH WE ALL SHOULD MAKE, BE MORE
LIKE MICKEY, GIVE MORE THAN YOU TAKE

TO ALL THAT KNEW HIM, I WANT YOU TO REMEMBER
OUR BROTHER MICKEY WENT TO BE WITH THE LORD,
THE 10TH OF DECEMBER

NOW, NOT MUCH TO SAY,
BUT HALALUWJA, DAY AFTER DAY

LOVE YOU ALWAYS, ROGER

This is a poem wrote by a very good friends of ours:

If I should die tomorrow,
There's something I need to say.
If I should die tomorrow,
Know that I loved you each and every day.

If I should die tomorrow,
Remember the good and not the bad.
If I should die tomorrow,
Cherish the moments that we had.

If I should die tomorrow,
A piece of you I take with me.
If I should die tomorrow,
Think of how peaceful I will be.

If I should die tomorrow,
I'll miss you oh so much.
If I should die tomorrow,
I'd never forget your kind and gentle touch.

If I should die tomorrow,
An angel I hope to be.
If I should die tomorrow,
I'd protect and watch over you eternally.

If I should die tomorrow,
No regret's, sorrow or shame.
If I should die tomorrow,
I'd thank God for no more pain.
If I Should Die Tomorrow

A wonderful testimony by one of Mickey's Niece's. Tiffany Powell

Hey!!!I thought I would remind you about that

1963 yellow corvette you took to my dads'

house when we were just kids.That always

amazed me how those front tires came off the

ground when you took off!! I would still love to race,

I sure would love that.That's what I remember about you

most besides all that candy mom wouldn't let us have.

I remember you always hugging and kissing us.

Mickey you always treated us like your own and

I love you for that.I wish we could have all stayed

the same .We never stopped loving you for that and

we all still love you so much! I still see you as the closed

uncle I've ever had I just wish I had so much more to say.

I love my aunt and my cousins,but it really doesn't

seem to be as that matters any more.I hope

Jackie reads this to you it would mean so much to me.

I do have alot of emotions and I can never let them show.

I LOVE YA'LL TIFF
