Barbara Iris Williams

“Barbara Iris Williams” I lost my sister today I knew she was a fighter and she would win Been at deaths door before and slammed it and moved on I cannot believe she is gone, Cancer took another, first my brother than my mother from my life My family’s hearts broken and torn Again, cannot believe she is gone Looking at life come back to her face Then like a blackboard everything erased We promise to keep the grandkids and kids safe We know no one can take her place She knew we would take care of everything that was no doubt She was a fighter destined to win this bout Who thought God would count her out? That’s only one thing God and Death can talk about They’ll say who will walk in or who will walk out We had good times and we were blessed I believe God takes the best I’d rather God take someone else Then to endure the pain we felt In heaven you will watch over all the rest The pain and heartache are only a test Losing a sister is irreplaceable and gone forever But I believe someday we’ll all be in heaven together
