The family will receive friends and share repass at the 
Gladiators Building on Oxendine Road. 
God saw he was getting tired 
and a cure was not to be. 
So He put His arms around him 
and whispered, Come with me. 
With tear-filled eyes we watched him 
suffer and fade away. 
Although we loved him deeply, 
we could not make him stay. 
A golden heart stopped beating, 
hardworking hands put to rest. 
God broke our hearts to prove to us 
He only takes the best. 
The Master Called 
Im soriy I had to leave you 
My loved ones, Oh so dear. 
But you see, the Master called me 
His voice was veiy clear! 
I had made my reservation-^ 
A heaven bound ticket for one 
And I knew that He would call me. 
When he felt my work was done. 
I know your hearts are heavy 
Because I have gone away; 
But when the Master called me 
1 knew that I could not stay. 
Yes, Im Sony I had to leave you 
My loved ones oh so dear. 
But you see, the Master called me 
And now Im resting here; 
Yes, Ive crossed over to gloiy 
And to you all I say, 
lust stay in the hands of jesus 
And well meet again someday.
