Miss Alma's Obituary

What a lovely person not to have known, The tragedy of reading all that is shown, I yearn to turn the clock back in time, To dance at your place and then I shall dine. On your varied menus that happen each day, And out of respect I just want to say You're a wonderful woman so kind of heart And your memory weaves us, never to part. The regret of it all is so plain to see I didn't know you and you didn't know me But I see in your face and read all the love, That I know in my heart you're in heaven above So I thank you Miss Alma, and sincerely say, May God Bless and keep you this Heavenly day...
