May God always bless you and your family.
John 10:27-29 (NKJV)
27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand.

To Mrs. Alfreda Greene & Family
In Gods sweet hands she now gently
rest
Laying her head a place better than best
An Angel led her far away into the light
A beautiful serene place of sheer delight
Please don't grieve for you'll meet again
When times right only God knows when?
With those before her are family friends
In a beautiful place where all life ends
If you always look up knowing it's true
An Angel In heaven she's there for you
Her leaving was not her finish nor end
Know you'll meet again on this depend
No fear no violence no war rages there
Only love and peace serene and sincere
Fear not for she grieve not once at all
Let only tears missing her be one's that fall
Move on in life enjoy each day in time
She is safe, in heaven, at God's side.
