FARE-THEE-WELL TO A GOOD NEIGHBOR AND FRIEND.

       Fare thee well good friend and nurse
       Your friendship we will savor
       We're honored to have been you friends
       We'll miss your caring labor
      
       At a time when things were tough
       Your oldest daughter dying
       We all shared your grief with you
       As you just sat there crying

                                                                        
       You said you wished to be with her
       You told God to take you
       It seems now he heard your prayer
       Your husband couldn't wake you

       Sometime in early morning hours 
       The hill was just too steep
       You have joined your daughter now
       In everlasting sleep.

       He surely knows how hard you worked
       When nursing others' aching
       So he's prepared a place for you
       to stop your heart from breaking

       So be at peace, and thank you, Barb
       We share your loss with others
       Children know how hard it is
       To lose their Dads and Mothers
      
       God bless and keep you well forever, Barbara Martz.
