In the Arms of An Angel
In the arms of an angel
No words could be more fitting
I raise my voice in loving tribute
To Ken with your permitting
A celebration of this loving soul
Such a kind and gentle man
Always upbeat, ready with a smile
As each new day began
In the arms of an angel
Looking from above with a smile
Always ready with a kindly word
In spite of all life's trials
Dear, dear, sweet Marguerite
The love of Ken's existence
Will journey forward hand in hand
Together still, though distant
So everyone's here to celebrate
This special bond he possessed
With each and every one of us
As a friend, he was the best
May he forever rest in peace.
