My Grandmother was a very special person to me. I loved her very much. I miss her terribly. She was a good lady. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother and a sister. She loved to shop and I mean LOVED to shop. She like to play the piano. She taught music for many years. She taught me how to play the piano one summer. She was a member of the Eastern Star. I loved to hear her play Oh what a friend we have in Jesus on her piano.
I thought I would make this page HER page. My memories of her and all she did for everyone.
I'm Free
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free
I'm following the path God laid for me,
I took his hand when I heard him call
I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Task left undone must stay that way.
I found that peace at the close of the day.
If my parting has left a void
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah yes, these things I too, will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow.
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much.
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me
God wanted me now, He set me free.
