"It broke our hearts to lose you" But you did not go alone.
For part of us went with you The day God called you home. To see your face and watch your smile To sit and talk with you awhile' To be together in the same old way Would be our greatest wish today.
^ You left so suddenly without a good-bye
But you left us memories that will never die. God gives us strength to bear it And courage toface the blow
, But what it meant to lose you
No one will ever know.
"We All Love You"
