Ms. Bedside's candle burns bright,
as weepers we must endure for a night.
Ms. Bedside's candle burns bright
as a mother, teacher, and friend
Showing us love like that of THE FATHER guiding us right
Ms Bedside's candle can never die
It lives in our hearts and shows in our lives
And although I can no longer laugh and talk with you
I can still see your smile love always rick THANK YOU FATHER.

Her love, lives on in each of us.
As she has touched, our many lives, in her walk, while on life's journey.
Her loving smile, said hello
as she crossed your path or invited you in her door
Always asking of our
whrereabouts. Often showing us.
She had grown to love us.
And never letting us forget it
In each of us Ms. Bessie's candle burns bright
Can't you see it
Each time, the moon lights up the night

We met Mrs. Bessie over a year ago and being in her presence, she made you feel that she knew you for a lifetime. She was a strong woman of faith and we feel blessed to have know her. She is resting now and you all/we will meet her again when Jesus returns. God bless her entire family and may he comfort all of you.
