God saw the road was getting rough, The hiHs were hard to climb,
He gently closed those loving e^es And whispered, "Peace be thine." The weary hours , the days of pain
The sleepless nights are passed; The ever patient worn out frame :
Has found sweet rest at last.
Our greatest appreciation is extended to all of you, who have been supportive during our bereavement. You have been a source of comfort. May God bless all of you.
Special Thanks To: The Staff at FMC Dialysis (Willette Wallace) Center for their spe cial care and love shown to our Mother and Grandmother during her illness.
