"As tears roll down our faces, suddenly we feel a warm embrace. With a smile so wide it brings tears to our eyes. We try so hard not to cry all the pain we cannot hide. You always knew just what to say to anyone having a bad day. We know your leaving this earth must be part of God's plan. As we look up towards heaven, we imagine you spreading your wings to fly. Tell everyone there we send our love, who are now Angels up above. As the tears roll down our faces, we know you are in a better place."
