I took His hand when I heard I Inn call, I turned my hack and left it all. I eould not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work or play, Tasks left undone must stay that way, I jound peace at the end of the day. If my parting has left a void, 1hen fill it with remembered joys. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Oh yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow, 1 wish you the sunshine of tomorrow, My life's been full, l savored much, brood friends, good times, a loved ones touch. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, Don't lengthen it now with undue grief, Lift up your hearts, and share with me, God wanted me NOW, He has set me free. & & & & & & ~ 'Expressions o f Qratitude ~ T he family a c k n o w led g es with ti if; sinc t r ia l apprec :ialign ALL OF THE KIND AND CARING EXPRESSIONS OF SYMPATHY REN DERED DURING OUR BEREAVEMENT.
