God saw her getting tired, a cure not to be,
so He put his arms around her, and whispered
"Come with Me"

How many can say that they really liked or even
loved their in laws?? I can say that.
My mother-in-law was a great lady. She loved
life, loved her sons, and loved her husband
dearly. She loved to cook, and I think the
kitchen was her favorite room. She
loved trying new recipes. Mom was a
devoted church goer. She loved to play bingo,
and to play cards with the neighborhood ladies.
Rest in peace mom and be happy
now that you have joined your loved one.

I'm Free
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard him call;
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way;
I found that place at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared a laugh, a kiss;
Ah yes, these things, I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much;
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seems all to brief;
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.
