God looked around heaven and found an empty place, then he looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face. He put his arms around you....and lifted you to rest. Heaven must be beautiful, because he only takes the best. He knew you were suffering, he knew you were in pain. He saw the road was getting rough and the hills were to hard to climb. So he closed your eyes, and said "peace be thine." It broke our hearts to lose you but you didn't go alone, for part of us went with you the day he called you home.
