People need people and friends need friends , and we all need love, for a full life depends not on vast riches or great acclaim, not on success or on worldly fame, but just in knowing that someone cares and holds us close in their thoughts and prayers. May God continue to richly bless you all.

She was different, she was special Unique in a thousand ways
She was giving, she was loving And we'll miss her all ofour days. She knew sorrow in great measures
And was stung by illness too. But neither could defeat her, Nothing her faith could subdue.
Her legacy was friendship She was so giving ofher time, Her bequest was her faith in God,
Her family, and mankind. And so instead ofmourning As we remember her this hour, We really should be celebrating The blooming ofa flower.
Because you see She was different, she was special
Unique in a thousand ways She was loving she was giving And we'll miss her, all ofour days.
