A TRIBUTE TO OUR SISTER Written by Leonard Stern

No one knows the day or hour this life they must depart,

So do not plan anything just live right in your heart.

The master Has it organized and it must go by his plans

{

He sees no need to tell you how would you understand.

Gloria knew that her life was coming to an end, So she asked to see and speak to all of her friends. They laughed and talked and said "Ill see you in a while," As they left a tear fell and mingled with her smile.
Good-bye, Sis Pat, Joyce, Marvin, Charles, Leonard, and Walter
