To Where You Are

Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memories so clear
Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration
Can it be

That you are
Forever loved
And you are watching over me
From up above

Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for a while
To know you're there
A breath away's not far to where you are

Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream?
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen

As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me
Every day

Cause you are
Forever loved
Watching me
From up above

And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on
And never leave

Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for a while
To know you're there
A breath away's not far to where you are

I know you're there
A breath away's not far to where you are

Preston, i was very sad to hear that you passed away. I loved working with you and only because you gave me such great encouragement at work I am now in the position I am in. Even when you moved to Denver we stayed in touch through Facebook and I loved reading all about your everyday life....your new cooking creations....and your ups and downs. I will miss you my friend! I hope you rest in peace

Preston I will always remember the great times, and the introduction to your amazing friends. Meeting you thru work I was always happy to have had an outside-of-work friendship with you. I will never forget those great fun times and especially you teaching my son how to drive a stick shift. (saved me a handfull of grey hairs) An amazing man with a life cut way too short! Rest in peace my friend.

Preston.....You will be missed. We were buddies in junior high. Horace Mann. My best friend and myself were of course, rockin' super huge 1988 hair and you told us we needed wide load signs for the back of our shirts....You made us laugh every time we saw you.

I will never forget the times we rode our bikes around the block or the time we are sliding on the wet grass and I broke my elbow. Sitting at the bus stop In the snow. You were the best locker partner and friend
