Ive done my work, I sung my song.
Ive done some good, Ive done some wrong;
And I shall go where I belong.
The Lord has willed it so.
He guides my steps, for He knows best.
He will not harm where he has blessed;
And so good-night. Ill take my rest
With Him who loves me best.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Perhaps you sent food or a telegram,
Or sat quitely in a chair.
Perhaps you sent a Floral spray.
If so we saw it here.
Perhaps you spoke the kindest words.
That any Friend could say.
Perhaps you were not there at all.
Just thought of us today.
Whatever you did to console our hearts.
We thank you so much, whatever your part.
The LeVone Baker Family
