“Judy” TRIBUTE TO MOM

God saw that you were suffering,

The hills were hard to climb.

He gently closed your loving eyes

And whispered

“ peace be thine ”

Your sleepless nights are over,

Your restless tossing passed.

Your ever-tired worn-out frame

Has found sweet peace at last.

Your memory to us is a keepsake

With which we will never part.

Though God has you in His keeping,

We will always have

you in our hearts During this time of sorrow we learn how much

our family and friends mean to us.

Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness at a time

when it was much needed and deeply appreciated.
