Burdens and worries you endured
Praise God, these are no more.
Your body is gone, you will live on.
A being as you, cannot be forgot
For what you left is more than a lot
Your smile spread like rays of sun
Touching the hearts of everyone
The words you spoke, always kind
Says you always had others on your mind
You always gave a hug when it was time to say "goodbye"
I never knew it would be your last
Now I will forever hold on to your past
You will always be
FOREVER

WITH ALL MY LOVE TO ELLEN AND MICHELLE CONRAD
