Understanding
"I'll lend you for a little time a child of mine," God said.
"For you to love the while she lives, and mourn for when she's gone."
"It may be six or seven years or twenty-two or three.
But will you, till I call her back, take care of her for me?"
"She'll bring her charms to gladden you and should her stay be brief,
You'll have her lovely memories as solace for your grief."
"I cannot promise she will stay, since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn."
"And there with you on earth, this child of Mine I lend
For the many souls she will touch with the lessons that I send."
"I've looked this wide world over in My search for teachers true
And from the throngs that crowd life's way, I have selected you."
"Now will you give her all your love, nor think the labor vain
Nor hate Me when I come to call to take her back again."
"I fancy that I heard you say, "Dear Lord, Thy will be done.
For all the joy Thy child has brought, the risk of grief we'll run."
"We'll shelter her with tenderness, we'll love her while we may
And for the happiness we've known, forever grateful stay."
"But shall the angels call for her much sooner than we'd planned,
Dear Lord, forgive this grief of ours and help us understand."

Lisa, I worked with you at Lake Metroparks many years ago. My sister lost a 22 year old daughter a few years ago. I read the attached at her funeral. May God bless and keep your family....

Jim, Lisa, Megan, and Mike-
I am so sorry to hear about the sudden loss of Danielle. I have a broken heart for all of you. The pain of her passing and the heaviness in your hearts must be unbearable. I wish so much that I could fast forward time to the days when the pain and heaviness in your hearts eases, and cheerful memories and laughter surround you. I wish I had a chance to meet Danielle, and feel as if I have through the many times Jim has spoken so highly of all of his children at work. He is very proud father of all of you, and loves you deeply! If there is anything that I can do for any of you, at any time, please ask. My continued prayers to all of you, and for Danielle.

There's a place I've never seen, beyond this world we know. A place I've only heard of but someday home to go- It's not on any map, there are no roads to take me there. But it's a place of perfect peace where hearts are free from care. And though I understand some may be saddened when I leave. One day, we all will meet again- that's what I believe... When it's time to travel there, I think I'll wear a smile. I'll say good-bye to those I love, but only for a while. Knowing there are others who have traveled there alone. Who cannot wait to greet me and to whisper "welcome home." May you find peace in the thought that your loved one is in a better place.
With Deepest Sympathy,
Wayne, Glenda, and Sue

Lisa, Jim, Megan, and Michael,
Words cannot begin to describe the emotions we are feeling at this time. We are like family; and losing Danielle is like losing one of our own. The sleepovers the girls shared, the makeovers and hair care parties, and their times just hanging out on the trampoline and swing sets together are treasured memories. Most recently, our conversations with her at our many neighborhood gatherings and seeing what a thoughtful and mature young woman she had become were equally happy times. We are so happy to have known Danielle and fortunate to have been a part of her growing up, and we share in your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Our love to you all,
Debbie, Joe, Jillian, and Katelyn
