On Sunday, September 3, 2006, the world lost an angel. God had searched the world over to find the perfect person to complete a job, and when he came to Damon, he knew he had found his person. So, God took Damon’s soul to heaven, for his work on earth was done.
Once again a cloud of sadness hovers over Nettie Mae, our family and friends. As the waves of grief wash over us all, Nettie Mae holds her head high and with a broken heart says, “Although I would never question God’s master plan, I just don’t understand why he would keep me here at age 85 and take my youngest son at age 51.�?/FONT>
What can you say to a grieving mother at a time like this?
(A few days before the sudden massive heart attack took Damon Russell Lawson’s life, he had visited his mother and told her that he had more faith in God and was closer to God than he had ever been in his life). I replied, “Aunt Nettie Mae, sometimes God will take us when we are the closest to him.�?“I guess so�?she said.
He was an angel to all who knew him. His laughter and singing, but most of all, his love �?will be terribly missed.
Damon leaves his wife Rhonda Lawson, 3 Son’s; Hays Redden Lawson (age 10), Damon Russell Lawson, Jr., and Dustin Ray Lawson. 3 Brother’s; Foy Eugene Lawson, Homer Joseph Lawson, and Paul Allen Lawson. 1 Sister, Alma Ruth Lawson Woolfe. 1 Stepson, Paul Beam. Grandchildren; Olivia and Aurora Sky Lawson. Step-Grandchildren; Josiah and Jeremiah Beam. And numerous Nieces, Nephews, Cousins and friends.
Services were held at Netherton Funeral Home at 2 pm Wednesday September 6, 2006. The Chapel over flowed into the lobby with family and friends.
Damon was laid to rest at Cedar Point Cemetery, Brownwood, Texas.
We will always love you Damon, and cherish our special memories. ©Betty Rose Brown
