Dont' spend too much time in mourning.Tears are for the sad.

I left to he with Jesus and that should make you glad. Don't waste your hours in grieving, no need to feel distress.

I'm tired o f life's frustrations and had to have some rest. Don't vex yourself with questions, or try to reason why.

Life here for me was ended, it came my time to die.Don't lose the love I gave you, feed it with your care.

Grow it with devotion and spread it everywhere.Don't fret because my leaving came in such a way We'll have another meeting in God's Eternal Day.

The family wishes to express our sincere appreciation to all of you who have helped ease the pain caused by the loss of our loved one. Your kind expressions of compassion and sympathy are blessings of relief and inspiration.
