God looked around His Garden,
And found an empty place
He then looked down upon the Earth,
And saw your tired face.
He put His Arms around you,
And lifted you to Rest.
God’s Garden must be beautiful
He always takes the Best.
He knew that you were suffering,
He knew you were in Pain.
He knew you would never get well
On the Earth Again.
He saw the road was getting rough,
And the Hills were hard to climb.
So he closed your weary eyelids,
And whispered, “Peace Be Thine.”
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn’t go alone
For part of us went with you
The day God called you Home.

We will miss you. We love you and Uncle Ronald.

Brenda,
Was sorry to hear about your sister. Tell your mother and family if there is anything I can do please let me know. I know she will be missed very much. I know for I have been there when Lisa passed away. I know God will comfort you and the family if you only ask of him.
God bless and keep you and your family in his loving arms at this time of your
life when you need him so very much.
Love,

J.B. and Shirley Jordan
