David, James, Charles, Caroline and John.
God's garden had need of a flower,
He put it here for a time below,
But in his tender love he took her above...
In a more favorable climb to grow.
My heartfelt sympathy to all of you and you will be in my prayers forever.
Love,
Cindy

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.
Dear David and family,
Richard and I were so deeply hurt to hear of your loss. Bonnie was a wonderful person and will be sadly missed.
We will always cherish our memories of her. Our prayers are with you and your loved ones.
We are here for you if there is anything we can do,please let us know. God Bless
