This page is dedicated to a wonderful woman who left me in 2000. I was very close to her, a very special lady indeed. This wonderful woman was not only my mother, but my best friend too. She will be deeply missed by her daughters, Alice, Sally, Catherine, sons in law and grandchildren.

Safely Home
I am home in Heaven dear ones;
Oh, so happy and bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light
All the pain and grief is over,
Every restless tossing passed;
I am now at peace forever,
Safely home in Heaven at last.
Did you wonder why I so calmly
Trod the valley of the shade?
Oh! But Jesus' love illumined
Every dark and fearful glade.
And He came Himself to meet me
In that way so hard to tread;
And with Jesus' arm to lean on,
Could I have one doubt or dread?
Then you must not grieve so sorely,
For I love you dearly still;
Try to look beyond earth's shadows,
Pray to trust our Father's Will.
There is work still waiting for you,
So you must not idly stand;
Do it now, while life remaineth -
you shall rest in Jesus' land.
When that work is all completed,
He will gently call you Home;
Oh, the rapture of that meeting,
Oh the joy to see you come!

God saw you were getting tired and a cure was not to be......so he put His
arms around you and whispered, "Come to Me". With tearful eyes I
watched you, and saw you pass away. Although I loved you dearly....I could not
make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God
broke my heart to prove to me He only takes the best. ......Author Unknown
