Mrs Smith you will be missed, as we always shared in our baseball stories. You were a great fan and always wanted an update on our baseball standings.

Mrs. Smith,
Your legacy of dedication and compassion will continue on for all eternity through the liveliness of those who cherished you most - your family and friends.
You're in God's hands now, and finally at rest.

God saw that she was getting tired
And a cure was not meant to be
So he put his arms around her
And whispered "come with me"
With tearful eyes we watched her suffer
And watched her fade away
Although we loved her dearly
We could not make her stay
A golden heart stopped beating
And a warm loving heart to rest
God broke our hearts to prove to us
That he only takes the best
My condolences to friends and family ...
