For we know that if our earthly house,this tent,is destroyed,we have a building from God,a house not made with hands,eternal in the heavens.For in this we groan,earnestly desiring to be clothed with our habitation which is from heaven,if indeed, having been clothed, we shall not be found naked.For we who are in this tent groan,being burdened,not because we want to be unclothed,but further clothed,that mortality may be swallowed up by life.Now he who has prepared us for this very thing is God,who also has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.So we are always confident,knowing that while we are at home in the body we absent from the Lord.For we walk by faith,not by sight.We are confident,yes,well pleased rather to be abent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

"OUR GUARDIAN ANGEL"


YOU LEFT SO SUDDEN "BUCK,"
YOU LEFT SO SOON WE STILL FEEL YOUR PRESENCE,
YOUR FRIENDLY SMILE SO PRECIOUS,
GONE TOO SUDDEN,
GONE WAY TOO SOON,
YOUR FLAME BURNED OUT "BUCK,"

I CAN NO LONGER HEAR YOU,
TALK TO YOU OR SEE YOU,
BUT YOU CAN SEE ME AND PROTECT ME,
JUST THE WAY GOD IS PROTECTING YOU,
AND GIVING YOU WINGS TO BE OUR GUARDIAN ANGEL,

WE LOVE YOU AND WILL CHERISH YOU FOREVER

REST IN PEACE WE WILL MEET UP SOON
