My God-Father/Paran Charlie,
He was a lovely, beautiful man who was kind of heart. I shall always remember his presence. I know that you will continue being a door keeper for the Lord-welcoming Saints in the kingdom of heaven. It always meant something to me to have Godparents. I am glad I was blessed with you as my Godfather/Paran whom God had chosen for me.
I will never forget the kind words you had spoken to me for birthdays the way you said Godchild and the happiness you had on your face when I told you I was graduating from college. It was these little things that you done from your heart and I will miss you for that. Paran, Rest in Peace.
Love you always,
Your God-Daughter
