MICAH, It's been a little over a year now since we went away together and even, without Samson. I've needed to thank you, ever so much for our "Last dance" together,and to one of my favorite songs, "LET IT BE ME" by the Everly Brothers. Life hasn't been; and never will be the same without you, my one and only Love and I will not forgive God for taking you from me when just a few days before the hospital, you were perfectly fine! Your MAGGIE, and dance partner for at least 20 plus years {No more sunshine}

This is also for the family and friends of Mr. Michael D. Rabbett

" With the love of God within your heart every trial will pass away,
For He Will hear your every prayer and will turn the night today.
He will make the sunshine come again for no storm was meant to last. He will bring your heart tranquility when the clouds and rain have passed. With the love of God to comfort you all pain will ease away. And you will know again the joy of a peaceful , brighter day. For in the moments of our sorrow and in our deep despair.

One thing is truly certain-God's Love is Always There.

All my love,
