He called your name, dont question why. We all live and we all must die. You fought a good fight and said you were afraid, He called your name He gave your grade, He was the one who made the choice for you to be able to hear His voice. No more medicine, no more pain, no more sickness, no weight gain. We talked briefly before you left. You were scared of your failing health. I rememeber something you had said, you saw someone standing at your bed. It was God, He was the taker. He called you home to meet your maker. He called your name, you saw the light, so put on
your wings and take your flight. ~ Love Your Niece, Annette
Its like a dream that somehow came true. We thank God for every one of you. Your expressions of love and kindness when we were sad and the talks of joy and sadness we all had made us realize "Its not over yet!" We all have a charge that must be met so as you cry, rejoice and be glad you have given us strength, we may not have had. So hold your head up, stand tall and be still. God has a mission we all must fulfill. ~ With Love, The Family
