For Sandy, With Love

A kind and gentle woman
was too soon called away
now sorrow is upon your heart
for this sad, sad day.

A blessing to her family
and to each loving friend
so many tears from you flow
to see this dear life end.

Though your hearts are burdened
and filled with pain and grief
through faith in our Redeemer
may you find comfort and relief.

For all who came to know her
and be part of her life
she was a precious friend and sister
a cherished mom and wife.

Treasure all the memories
that each one of you hold
for now their blessed value
is worth more than pure gold.

Remember all the things you shared
and all her special ways
that made her mean so much to you
and cherish all her days.

Although she may be parted
from this earthly life
she has been freed from worry
her troubles and her strife.

In the company of angels
she's watching over you
and knows how much you love her
know that she loves you, too.

With assurance through God's precious gift
know that when your days here end
once more you'll see this beloved wife
sweet mother and dear friend.




This is dedicated to Sandy, who passed away
Sunday, January 18, 2009.  She was a dear and
precious friend for over 20 years of my sister and brother-in-law
Linda and Tom Haill and Beloved wife and mother
of John and Phil and special to all who had the great fortune
to know her.
