Rest in Peace Mommy, We will miss you!

This memorial web site is lovingly made in memory of Alvin Cremeans Jr., a loving Father, Son, Brother, and Friend to all. But he loved being a Father  more than any thing else in the world. He spent most of his time with his sons going fishing, camping, going to the races, playing ball, and coached ball for them. He enjoyed taking them to amusement parks and on many vacations. Jr.'s most treasured time was the time he spent with his sons. Jr. also had a beautiful niece whom he loved very much & bragged on her often. Jr. excelled at everything he did from auto mechanic, sheet metal worker, to well drilling. He worked very hard to provide for his family. His favorite hobby was cars, especially restoring antique cars. He learned alot about cars from our father, but sadly our daddy passed on when we were young but Jr. never stopped learning all that he could about cars. He was an excellent mechanic. He loved going to the races, especially stock car racing. His hero and favorite driver was Richard Petty, and he always said when he was grown he was going to be just like Richard Petty. Jr. gave his heart to the Lord just a few years before he passed on. We trust that he's with our Heavenly Father now and forever. Jr. was active in his church and he did his best to serve the Lord the best that he knew how. He was a man who rarely expressed his love verbally, but it was evident in the things he did for so many. He worked very hard to please his loved ones, to be the best father he could be and to be a friend to everyone he met. He is missed more and more every day that goes by. Untill we are all reunited, rest in peace Jr. because you surely earned it. 
We will never forget you.
You will always be loved. 
Always.








Blooming roses represent
LOVING YOU STILL.
 Red roses also symbolize that
 we cannot be seperated even in death.








Oh that I had wings like a dove!
for then would I fly away, and be at rest.
Psalm 55:6 





                                           Thank you Cindy!




                                  Thank you Cindy!




                                Thank you Cindy!





Softly the leaves of memory fall.
Gently I gather and treasure them all,
Unseen, unheard, you are always near,
STILL LOVED, still missed, so very dear.
No length of time can take away,
My thoughts of you from day to day,
Whatever else I fail to do,
I never fail to think of you.





                                                                Thank you Julie!

                    Thank you Monica!












                                              Thank you Dalene! This is beautiful.






FLY
Fly, fly little wing.
Fly beyond imagining.
The softest cloud, the whitest dove,
Upon the wind of heaven's love.
Past the planets and the stars,
Leave this lonely world of ours,
Escape the sorrow and the pain
And fly again.

Fly, fly precious one.
Your endless journey has begun.
Take your gentle happiness,
Far too beautiful for this.
Cross over to the other shore,
There is peace forevermore.
But hold this memory bittersweet,
Until we meet.

Fly, fly do not fear.
Don't waste a breath, don't shed a tear.
Your heart is pure, your soul is free.
Be on your way, don't wait for me.
Above the universe you'll climb,
On beyond the hands of time.
The moon will rise, the sun will set,
But I won't forget

Fly, fly little wing.
Fly where only angels sing.
Fly away, the time is right,
Go now, find the light.
 



                           Thank you Julie!




                                     Thank you Cindy!
Jesus said, "My sheep hear My voice,
and I know them, and they follow Me. 
I give them eternal life,
and they shall never perish;
neither shall anyone
snatch them out of My hand."
          John 10:26-28




                                 Thank you Julie! 

I'm Your Angel

No mountain's too high for you to climb,
All you have to do, is have some climbing faith.
No river is too wide for you to make it across,
All you have to do is believe it when you pray.
And then you will see the morning will come,
and every day will be bright as the sun.
All of your fears, cast them on me.
I just want you to see.

I'll be your cloud up in the sky,
I'll be your shoulder when you cry,
I'll hear your voices when you call me,
I am your Angel, and when all hope is gone I'm here,
No matter how far you are, I'm near.
It makes no difference who you are,
I am your Angel, I'm your Angel.

I saw your teardrops and I heard you cry,
All you need is time, seek me and you shall find.
You have everything and you're still lonely.
It don't have to be this way
Let me show you a better day.
Then you will see the morning will come
and all of your days will be bright as the sun.
So all of your fears just cast them on me,
How can I make you see.

And when it's time to face the storm,
I'll be right by your side.
Grace will keep us safe and warm,
 And I know we will survive.
And when it seems as if the end is drawing near.
Don't you dare give up the fight,
Just put your trust beyond the sky.

I'll be your cloud up in the sky,
I'll be your shoulder when you cry,
I'll hear your voices when you call me,
I am your Angel, 
and when all hope is gone I'm here,
No matter how far you are I'm near.
It makes no difference who you are,
I am your Angel,  I'm your Angel.

Welcome to your new home Jr. 



                                Thank you Val!



                     Thank you Quinn!

When I come to the end of my journey
And I've traveled my last weary mile,
Just forget if you can, that I ever frowned.
And only remember the smiles.
 
Forget unkind words I have spoken; 
Remember some good I have done.
Forget that I ever had heartaches
Forget that I've stumbled and blundered 
And sometimes fell by the way.
 
Remember I have fought some hard
 battles and won, at the close of the day,
Then forget to grieve for my going, for
I would not have you sad for a day, 

But in summer just gather some flowers
And remember the place where I lay, 
And come in the shade of the evening
When the sun paints the sky in the west. 

Stand for a few moments beside me
And remember only my best.

HIS JOURNEY'S JUST BEGUN
Don't think of him as gone away -
his journey's just begun,
life holds so many facets -
this earth is only one.

Just think of him as resting
from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years.

Think how he must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away.

And think of him as living
In the hearts of those he touched
For nothing loved is ever lost -
And he was loved so much.

 Contributed by your son C.:

A heart of gold stopped beating, 
two shining eyes at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove,
He only takes the best.
 
God knew you had to leave us,
but you did not go alone
for part of us went with you,
the day He took you home.
 
To some you are forgotten,
to others just part of the past,
but to us who loved and lost you,
your memory will last.  







Dad's son C. played his first game 
of football on 09/19/06. 
Daddy loves you and is so proud of you C.




Daddy Loved played ball with his sons. Coaching too.
 He cherished the time he spent with his sons.
Every time he phoned he mentioned them first.
 He was so proud of his boys.








Dad's son J. loves Star Wars 
and a good galaxy dog fight. Daddy 
loves you and is so proud of you J.




Daddy loved fishing with his sons.
I will always cherished the time we spent
with Jr. and the boys fishing. 




Gone Fishin'

Dearest family I miss and love you so
But God called me home that day and I had to go.
Now I am in Heaven and my dad is with me too.
Blaine is here and both of them send their love to you.

Heaven is beautiful with gardens and lakes so blue.
There are so many angels and fishing too.
I get to fish with Dad and rock Blaine to sleep.
And every day I think of you and the memories I keep.

I can watch over you from my home above.
You're forever in my heart and have all my love.
So my sons when you play ball just remember this
Daddy's there in spirit, no game will I miss.

I have to say it once again I love you all so much.
One day we'll be together to see, to feel, to touch.
Until then Dad and I and little baby Blaine
Will wait in Heaven until we meet again.

Thank you Dianne.























                                  Thank you Jayne!





Jr. loved to play with his cars in dirt
when he was a little boy. I loved playing to whenever he 
was willing to let a "girl". lol  We built a track on the
side of a bank in the yard, and made little lakes by putting 
plastic in holes we dug out and added water. We built tunnels
by digging them out with spoons, used my tiny doll houses for
homes. I sure miss those days, such carefree times. 
Memories I will forever cherish. I miss you so much Jr.




                                         Thank you Julie!











"The King Petty"



                       
                 Thank you Cindy.
  Jr would have loved this!

                              Thank you Tammy!






















We miss you so much Daddy.
The faith that you instilled in me
is where my faith helps to keep me going.
You will never be forgotten. I love you!









Daddy had an old truck like this. 
He and Jr had so much fun in that truck.
Daddy let him drive it in driveway at home.
 Jr. was so proud to drive Dads truck.




                                         Thank you Betty!
 Jr.'s Beautiful Toy.
He was so very proud of the 
work he did to restore this car.
And he should be, it's beautiful.
I would give anything if I could
buy it back from the person he 
sold it to. He hated having 
to sell it. We do too.



Here is one with flames down the 
sides like you wanted so badly Jr.
Hope you like it. lol





Jr. loved going to the salvage yards to look
for treasures for doing his auto restorations.
 He did this with Daddy all the time growing up.
They had so much fun doing this together.





Jr. Loved his coffee!
Black and no instant for him, freshly perked only.
 Many times I only had instant that we kept for
company because don't drink coffee. He would get
 our thermos bottle and go to Mom's house to get him
 some freshly perked coffee. What I wouldn't give to
 buy a coffe pot and fix him one more cup
 of coffee and sit with him to talk a while!



A Fishermans Prayer

I pray that I may fish until my dying day,
and when I have made by last cast,
I then most humbly pray,
When in our Lords great landing net  
I am peacefully asleep, 
that in His mercy,
I be judged as big enough to keep.

Rainbows represent the end to all 
suffering. And Gods promise of hope.
 
We think of that rainbow we saw
 the day after your funeral often. 
 We have hope we will see you
 again some day soon. 
Until then we'll be missing
 you and loving you.

God's Heaven Revealed

I know that there are questions within your heart today
Concerning my demise and why it went that way….
You could not stop the blinding rain
Nor could you even control the pain

Each of us must live out our days
Committed individually to follow God’s ways
Love alone cannot spare anyone
Unless it is the love which issues from God’s Son

I know how you grieve and the loss which you feel
But what you don’t see is God’s Heaven revealed
Before my very eyes. I walk with the King
All that went on before
Is forgotten and done
I’m free, I’m alive – and I have everything…..

Those we love must someday pass
 beyond our present sight...
must leave us and the world we know
without their radiant light.

But we know that like a candle,
their lovely light will shine
 to brighten up another place more
perfect more divine.

And in the realm of Heaven,
 where they shine
so warm and bright.
Our loved ones live forevermore,
in God's eternal light.

"GO REST HIGH ON THAT MOUNTAIN"

I know your life
On earth was troubled, 
And only you could know the pain. 
You weren't afraid to face the devil
You were no stranger to the rain.

Go rest high on that mountain.
Son, your work on earth is done
Go to Heaven a shoutin'  
Love for the Father and the Son.

Oh, how we cried the day you left us, 
We gathered 'round your grave to grieve.
Wish I could've seen the angels faces 
When they heard your sweet voice sing.

 Go rest high on that mountain, 
Son, your work on earth is done
Go to Heaven a shoutin'  
Love for the Father and the Son.
                           Vince Gill
