My Prayer For You
God saw you getting tired A cure was not to be found So he put his arms around you and whispered come with me With heartful eyes we watched you and saw you fade away although we loved we could not make you stay A golden heart stopped beating today your tender hands at rest God took you home to prove to us he only takes the best
Love And Miss You Dearly
Your Cousin Laurie & Brian Keeler
