In Memoriam to Dolores:
God looked around His garden and found an empty space.
He then looked upon the earth and saw her tired face.
He put His arms around her and lifted her to rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful. He always takes the best.
He knew that she was suffering. He knew she was in pain.
He knew that she would never get well on earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough
and the hills were hard to climb
so He closed her weary eyelids and whispered
“Peace Be Thine”.
It broke our hearts to lose her but she didn’t go alone
for part of us went with her the day God called her home.
Cremation with Care by Chas. E. Davis Funeral Home with Crematory, Inverness, FL.
