FOR SISTER TOLMAN
We will miss that ray of sunshine, that ever smiling face,
The petite picture of beauty, a bundle of sweet grace,
Pain is hidden for the most part, always pleasing to meet,
No moans or groans came as everyone she did greet.
So full of the light of the gospel, loved our Saviour dear,
Always felt that special spirit when ever she came near,
A lovely delicate flower growing in earths garden so fair,
Wanting the love of the Master to others to willingly share.
You tried and did more than your best, but He understands,
He may have a hundred of other things for you in His plans,
May the Lord guide and bless you to have the strength to endure,
Grow in wisdom and understanding with a heart thats forever pure.
You know you are loved and will be missed in this happy place,
Miss those sparkling eyes and that ever radiant smiling face,
Miss the laughter and the eagerness that is all part of you,
God bless you dearest friend from your friends strong and true.
We will be friends forever and so we will meet again one day,
Even if we have to wait until in heaven we have gone to stay,
For there is a strong bonding, like part of an eternal last family,
And nothing can ever mar the true joy we shall one day see.
