Not sure what to say?

In tears I saw you sinking,
I watched you fade away.
You suffered much in silence,
you fought so hard to stay.
You faced your task with courage.
Your spirit did not bend,
and still you kept on fighting until the very end.
God saw you getting tired.
When a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you and whispered "come to me".
So when I saw you sleeping So peaceful, free from pain.
I could not wish you back
to suffer that again.

My condolences to the Brown family. I will always have fond memories of Mother Margaret, I grew up around her & Elder Brown while in Waverly and going to church and fellowshipping with the The Church of All Nations with my mom Elsie Drew. I'm sure they are rejoicing together in Heaven right now. My prayers are with the family, God Bless you all.

I glimpsed a little bit of heaven,

On a warm, sunny, summer day,

As I walked along a country lane,

And saw meadows in grand array.



High above the white clouds drifted,

In a sunwashed, blue, blue sky...

Over majestic purple mountains,

This old earth to beautify.



Yellow buttercups and white daisies,

And Queen Anne's delicate white lace,

Graceful, golden, butterflies hovering,

As I searched Mother...

Lord, I'm tired and so weary

And I must confess, a little bit blue

And I am counting on you

Lord to carry me thru



Life's storms and hard times
Often seem hard to bear

Ah, but so good to know

That you do care



Sometimes it's so hard Lord,
To feel Your presence near me

And again I find myself tossing

On life's turbulent sea



I've made so many mistakes
Lord Trying to find my...

Flowers of all colors and shades

Speak emotions and memories past

And speak love that will last

Echoing friendships through the years.



Flowers speak young love

"Red and Yellow, catch a fella"

Bouquets pastel and white

Speak promises on wedding days.



Flowers speak of holiness

God places them here to bless

Arrayed in colors of rainbows

Whispering faith, Matchless Rose of Sharon.

For Every Day, Every Year
Hope Eternal in the Heavens!!!

It was announced today that there has been, is and always will be a leader of leaders, King of Kings, Lord of Lords whose home is not in this world, but in Heaven above. He is greater than all strengths, all powers, all nations, all creation, and all the universe. He owns all of it; He made all of it; He watches over all of it continually; He listens to the cries of His people, His dear ones, not just every once in a while,...

Lord, please be with me,

Each hour of each day

Guide me Your way

Through life I do pray



Though man may tempt me

And peace be denied

Help me through each day

Stay right by my side



Teach me to pray

Help me to be humble

Before Your presence

Hold me, lest I stumble



Show me each road

And pathway to take

To arrive at Your

Almighty Pearly Gate



For by grace...

I wonder if you'll ever know,
Just what you mean to me,
And all the many joys you've brought,
To all the family.

You taught me of our Father's love,
And how He cares for me.
Together we asked for guidance,
In things we could not see.

You told me how Christ lived and died,
For all humanity.
I gave my life to Him one day,
Like Him, I've tried to be.

You've always asked for so little,
And yet, given so much.
Each day there seems to be...

Always Here

Sometimes it's hard to understand,
why things happen as they do.
Especially when you lose someone,
who has been a friend to you.



We know not of tomorrow,
but one thing we can be sure....
God knows your grief and sorrow,
he will help you to endure.



You'll always have the memories,
of someone who did care.
Will remember a special friendship,
and the times you two did share.



I'm always here if you need a...
