MY DEAREST FRIEND

      I lost one of my dearest friends today
      I'm going to miss her so
      She was always there for me
      With a loving smile, a kind word, a hug and never a no!
      I loved her like a sister and I'll miss her, oh so much
      It can never be the same again no one else has her loving touch.
      Please, God give us all the strength, the strength she had every day
      To always keep a smile in her heart
      and always a kind word to say
      She never grumbled or complained, but kept an inner peace and joy
      That kept her going every day
      And upon her face a smile.
      She always said, take one day at a time
      Jesus will help you through the next and he'll do it every time
      She fought a long hard fight, but ran her race with joy
      So let us keep her memory with us
      Morning, noon and night.
      And we'll all see her again some day in Heaven, Oh so bright!




      In Loving Memory of
      ALLEENE BROOKS
