‘God saw you getting tired when a cure was not to be, so he closed his arms around you and whispered ‘come with me’.
Your smile is gone forever your hand we cannot touch; all we have is memories of one we love so much.
He took you to his garden, and laid you there to rest. God’s garden must be beautiful, He only takes the best.’
