God saw you getting tired,
When a cure was not to be.
So He wrapped his arms around you,
and whispered, "come to me."
You didn't deserve what you went through,
So He gave you rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best
And when I saw you sleeping,
So peaceful and free from pain
I could not wish you back
To suffer that again.

Maria, I have known your family since 3rd. grade. You all have always been such an important part of my life. All the memorys I have of being with your family have been coming back to me. The one I mopst remember is the day your dad walked you down the isle. He was so proud of you.....you were beautiful. My prayers are with you and your family during this very hard time. If you ever need anything call me please. Love to you all during this hard time as well I know it isn't easy but but he isn't hurting anymore and he is watching you all from a way better place where he has no more pain.
