A Tribute To Marion
(written by one of Marion's special Friends)
Such a special friend is so hard to find, and we were so blessed
to call you "mine".
You cherished your family with love and pride, and graciously
took each day in stride.
Together with Bruce you shared a wonderful life, you each chose
so well for a husband and wife.
Your children you cherished, your precious grandchildren as well,
with each new arrival your heart would swell.
Your gardens, your flowers you tended with care, your gifts and
your talents you would unselfishly share.
Your quiet little chuckle, your beautiful brown eyes, your welcoming
home, your meals and your pies.
As a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister, a grandma, an aunt,
a niece or a friend, you loved each and everyone right to the
end.
In cards we were told we didn't play our hands, so we laughed
and we chuckled and tried a new plan.
But trying to play like the men soon went amuck, because they
really never had a plan.. just plain old luck.
A campfire, a New Years eve party, a visit... whatever, we always
had such a great time together
We will cherish always these wonderful things, especially now
that you've been given your angel wings.
We know not what the Lord has in His plan, so we will carry on
bravely and try to understand.
Your journey has been such an incredible one, but far too soon,
that journey was done.
Your reward in Heaven will be great I know, for your faith and
your courage you would always show.
Some days like these in life it seems the pleasures are few,
but we only have to recall what a pleasure it was to have a friend
like you!
