Rebecca Marie Hanks Makuch
God looked around his garden and found an empty place. He then looked down upon earth and saw your tired face. He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest. God's garden must be beautiful. He always takes the best. He knew you were in pain. He knew you would never get well on this earth again. He saw the road was getting rough and the hills were hard to climb. He closed your weary eyelids and whispered "Please be thine". It broke our hearts to lose you, but neither you or we will be alone.
