God looked around his graceful garden and found an empty place. He then looked down Upon this earth and saw you. He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest. Gods Garden must be magnificent he always takes the best. He saw the road was getting rough, and the hills are hard to climb, so he closed your weary eyelids and whispered “Peace Be Thine”. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn’t go alone for part of us went with you the day that God called you home.
