Remembering Your Love  / Deddra Butler (Wife)

 My Dear Sammie Lee, 
You were the only person to totally and completely love me. I know you went through a lot in your life, but you learned the lessons well. I was blessed to be the one to receive the benefits of what you had learned about love. Thank you for loving me.
I think about the day I met the perfect stranger. I think about us.
I think about the day I got wrapped around your finger. I think about us. The sun was shining on you...the Lord was smiling on me. Love was calling out. I had my mind made up. I can’t stop loving you. I can’t help myself and I can’t get over you no matter what I tell myself.
Never thought I’d love any one else. I think about us. I think about the day you left. I think about us. I think about the love we had. I think about us. I think about the way we laughed without reason. I think about us. Somebody tell me why I feel like I’m dying. I can’t stop loving you I can’t help myself. I can’t get over you no matter what I tell myself.
I think about us. I think about us. I think about us.
What am I going to do? Oh Daddy, I think about the love we had. I think about the way you laugh. I can’t get over you. I can’t stop missing you Daddy. I can’t stop wanting you Daddy. I can’t stop loving you. I can’t get over you. I can’t stop feeling you. I can’t stop dreaming about you. I will grow old with you for you are in my soul.
I Miss You
I miss the sound of your voice.
I miss your smile.
I miss the smell of your skin.
I miss your tenderness.
I miss watching you walk.
I miss the songs you would make up just for me.
I miss waking up next to you and you are watching me sleep.
I miss my messages baby you alright?
I miss you bringing me something from the store every time you went just to let me know you were thinking about me.
I miss that special way look would look at me.
I miss watching the sunsets with you.
I miss everything about you.
I just miss us.
 

I LOVE YOU WITH MY HEART & SOUL

 ALWAYS  A
 

BUTLER

Thinking of the two of you...  / Eleatrice Elder (Niece)
I know that sinking feeling
It will happen to you too...
The one that you love is gone forever
And there's nothing you can do.

So try to remember the good times together
And your heart will start to heal
They live on inside you,
They're always beside you,
They're angels waiting there,
To guide you home.

Your Love at Christmas Time  / Mrs Deddra Butler (Wife)

  Christmas with my Sammie Lee
 
I only had him for three of them. He didn’t like the shopping thing, so I would go with my daughters we would make a day of it. Last Christmas he deiced to go with me. We had such a good time singing, and laughing with and at each other. He told me that he would buy me the world if he could. I stopped and turned to him and said you are my world you are all I need. It was our first Christmas as husband and wife. I had to work so he did the cooking. I came home charismas eve He had a drink wanting and my bath ready. He was wonderful. When I was done I help with some of the preparation for the rest of the dinner. I was grading some chesses when he slides a box in front of me and he said the first of many. With tears in my eyes I open the box it was a pair of diamond earring in side. I could hardly see them for all the tears. He said if you don’t like them I could always take them back, and get you a doll. We turned out the light in the house and set in front of the tree and watched the lights. We talked about how lucky we were to have final fine each other if was magical. When I woke up Christmas morning there was a rose on his pillow and a note the said I love you are what I’ve wanted all my life. When I went in the kitchen to get my coffee it was sitting on the table with another gift it was a necklace. More tears he looked at me and laughs and said ok I’m not giving you anything else. (I had told him that my jewelry had been stolen and I want to replace it). Before I left to go to work he said I just want you to know that you are LOVED. I put up a little tree about 20” with white lights and red bows with a crystal angle under it just for my Sammie Lee

Happy Anniversary  / Mrs Sammie Lee Butler (Wife)
I close my eyes and I see us making plans for our anniversary. I’m asking you questions about what you want to do to celebrate our special day. You smile at me and say I just want to be with you baby. You’re looking at me the way you do that lets me know I am your happiness. I can still hear you say where have you been? You are just what I have been looking for. I think about you telling me about the first time you saw me. You told your buddy look man that’s what I need right there. He ended up being your best man at our wedding. God gave you your hearts desire. He gave you me.
When we starting dating I had no idea you were so special. You gave me all of you in such little time. You shared your hold life with me in just three years. With so much intimacy, you told me things about your childhood and your rights and wrongs. Some things someone else would have never told another living soul. I thank you for that.
I miss our late night or early morning conversations. I would roll over and find you awake and we would start to talk. You would say baby, you should go back to sleep you have to go to work and we would laugh and the next thing we know it would be time for coffee. I MISS THAT

Happy Anniversary Daddy
Thank You for Loving Me

Love is everlasting  / Deddra Butler (Wife)

I do not stand at your grave and weep;
you are not there. You are with me. 
You are in my heart.
You are thousand winds that blow.
You are the diamond glints on snow.
You are the sunlight on ripened grain.
You are the gentle autumn rain.
You are the soft stars that shine at night. You are still the love of my life.

Sammie although our acquaintance was brief and full of fun during the family re-union, it gives me great pleasure to offer a heart-felt appreciation in making that acquaintance. Life is short lived and we must make the best of everything while we yet live.  
Deddra I know that words cannot express the grief and emptiness that you feel but remember, weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning. Hold on and stay strong.
We love ya cousin

A Love Letter to Sammie Lee  / Deddra Butler (Wife)

Before I met you I thought I would be by myself for the rest of my life. But you came in with so much DETERMINATION and LOVE it was hard to keep you out of my heart. I had never known such PURE sweetness until I got to know you. To be loved by you is really a blessing to me. We discovered that we had to go through a whole lot to be ready for each other's love. Had we met any earlier in our lives we would not have been ready to share such sweet and tender moments. We believed it was truly about the little things that made love so great. I love you, DADDY. Thank you for giving me your heart. I will treasure it forever.
    Your Wife
Mrs. Sammie Lee Butler
