Not sure what to say?

Reached the gates of heaven
Gentle Angel there
Gathering her children
In quiet peaceful prayer

All these souls have entered
Babies now in flight
Enter gates of heaven
Journey into light

As they enter heaven
Each one will appear
Youth and ageless beauty
Most magnificent premier

Special hearts are gathered
Families filled with pride
Waiting for their loved ones
As heaven's train arrives

Love to fill the magic...

Sing praises to our God!

Sing praises to the Holy One!

Extol His mighty works!

Shout of His glorious deeds!

Let all the earth hear

Of our gracious Lord

Who gives abundantly

Of His riches to those who love Him

And tenderly cares for the down fallen

His compassion knows no bounds

His mercy is boundless

His love is deeper, higher and wider

Than all creation

Sing joyfully all you saints!

Sing and be...

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

What is death? Some see it as departure,
never to return, anywhere!! Some see it
as a relief from their pain here. Some
see it as simply escape from the agony
of this world. And some simply refuse to
even think of it, would rather deny it.
Yet, from the moment of birth we are
destined to die..

I see death as God's reward when our
work here is done - our meeting with
the Great Almighty. What a day that
will be too. I will not call it on,
that is...

MY MORNING GREETING

Today I walked outside to meet a brand new day,
Say my morning prayer, and be closer to Thee.
What a pleasure to feel your presence, and know
You planned this day of beauty, for all to see.

With the birds out singing, and the sun shining bright
And the sweet smell of fragrant flowers in the air
It is all so lovely, a time of peace fills my heart
To know you created all of this, beauty beyond compare.


You made the day, the hour...

To me the best time of the day is early morning,
when all is fresh and new. Yesterday is in the past
and I have a brand new day to experience. I love
to sit on my deck outside and just gaze at the hills.
There is so much peace and tranquility in the early
mornings. The fog in the hills slowly rises as the sun
peeks through, and the birds begin their day, flittering
around, in search of food and welcoming the day.
I enjoy just sitting, browsing and talking to the...

A Peaceful Walk


There's a little path
Going down in the field,
It leads into the forest
Which offers it a shield

The path will fade
As the leaves take over
The stillness there,
Is like none other

The silence of the trees
The stillness of the air
The nature all around
Is what God sent us to share!

A little farther down the way,
Is a parting, and a little brook
Where water flows so gently
Figures dance in it, if you only...

IN MY FATHER'S ARMS

Father, when day is done and all are sound asleep
I seek refuge in your loving arms and feel secure.
For many nights I have had pain and grief
And you helped me those nights to endure.




My life is not all pure and clean, as you know
But you loved me and waited till I could see,
You knew I would return, where else could I go,
There is no place like in your loving arms to be.




The tenderness and love you have...

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

Celebrating a life well lived. We will cherish the memories forever.

You will always live in our hearts and prayers.
