Dear Roger & Kathy, Odell, Sandra & Wayne:

Your mom\'s passing is indeed
sad but it\'s with joy that we know you will see her again in Heaven: The
following is a poem I found when my mom passed. I hope it gives you as much
comfort as it did for me.

A SOUL TAKES FLIGHT by Max Sidders
II Cor. 5:8
A
Soul took flight, one lonely night;
To meet it\'s precious King,
And
though we weep, the Bible says;
The Holy Angels sing.
No man can know,
the mind of God;
As such a time as this.
But this we know, without a
doubt;
That soul is now in Bliss.
We praise Thee God, for Thy great
love;
That brought Jesus down to men.
And one day soon, when Jesus
comes;
We\'ll meet that Soul again.
John 3:16
