Rhonda “Boo” Mottern

In loving memory of our beloved Rhonda “Boo” Mottern who passed away 4 years ago today

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free.

I’m following the path God has laid you see.

I took his hand when I heard Him call, I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day.

To laugh, to love, to work or play.

Tasks left undone must stay that way.

I found that peace at the close of day.

If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joys.

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss.

Oh yes, these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow.

I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life’s been full, I savored much.

Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief.

Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.

Lift up your hearts and peace to thee.

God wanted me now; He set me free!
