This is not good-bye,
It is only farewell for a little while,
When we think of you not being here we will cry,
But when we think of our wonderful memories we'll smile.
You have a special place in the hearts of many people,
You touched so many lives in your special way,
Your out look on life was plain and simple,
Believe in God, be kind to others and be thankful for each day.
In life you saw your share of heartache and pain,
Had your hard times and times of sorrow,
But you never questioned your Lord or asked him to explain,
You just prayed for a better tomorrow.
You had a kind word for every one and were a friend to all
You shared words of wisdom and gave encouragement to those in need,
You spoke of your Lord and about waiting for His call,
You said when he spoke, you would heed.
The Lord has decided it was time to take you to your Heavenly Home above,
He lifted you gently in his arms and gave you wings to fly,
Now you are with loved ones who went before you, you are surrounded in love,
Even though we are sad and have tears to cry,
We will remember that we will all be together again someday,
And what a glorious day that will be to again see your smile,
You will be right there to lead our way
This is not good-bye, just so long for a little while.....
