Thoughts and Prayers For Connie

Another hero now laid to rest 
he served his country and gave his best
now missed by all

He now joins the ranks of those before 
another saint who lived, just next door.
his death, befall

a life lived well, his work is now done
honored this day by everyone
proud, standing tall

Our dear friend Connie, is left to grieve
As her husband Mike, now takes his leave
Our prayers now call

*Dedicated to Connie and her husband Mike*
