Hello LaBose

Sorry to hear about your wife. Let's hope it was caught early and treatment will be successful. Let us know how things get on. We will help if we can.

Best wishes

I asked the Lord to bless you
As I prayed for you today
To guide you and protect you
As you go along your way...

His love is always with you
His promises are true,
And when we give Him all our cares
You know He will see us through...

So when the road you're travelling on
Seems difficult at best
Just remember I'm here praying
And God will do the rest

Hi Shelley, wondered if you could help as you are so wonderful with words. My mum died on Sun at 6pm (17/4/05), not from cancer she had been in ITU for 6weeks post op. Think maybe she couldn't bear the thought of me going first??!
Anyway I was wondering if you could give me alittle verse I could use to announce her death in our local paper, if you don't think I'm too cheeky asking! If nothing comes to hand don't worry but thought i'd ask anyway.
Feeling a bit low today, not even dresed yet - can't get motivated.

Dear Sue, so sad to hear about your Mum. Such a sad time for you. When we lose our Mums, we are no longer children & life is never the same again. Much love.

Hi Sue, Hope this will do

God looked around His garden and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face.
He put His arms around you and lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful. He only takes the best.

He knew that you were suffering. He knew you were in pain.
He knew that you would never get well on earth again.
He saw the road getting rough and the hills were hard to climb.
So He closed your weary eyelids and whispered, "Peace be thine".

It broke our hearts to lose you but you didn't go alone.
Part of us went with you the day God took you home.
If tears could build a stairway and heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk a path to heaven to be with you again.


"Live like there is no tomorrow, Dance like no one is watching, Love like u've never been hurt"
"U don't stop laughing because you grow old, You grow old because you stop laughing"
