God saw you getting tired When a cure was not to be He closed His arms around you and whispered "Come to Me." In tears we saw you sinking We watched you fade away. Our hearts were almost broken, You fought so hard to stay. But when we saw you sleeping, So peacefully, free of Pain, We would not wish you back To suffer that again. So treasure her Lord, In your "Garden of Rest," For here on earth, She was "One of the best." Published in the South Bend Tribune on 1/28/2009
