In loving memory of

September 28, 1950 – August 11, 2020

Takin’ the Train To Heaven

Heaven’s train has come ’a callin’

The conductor tells me, “time to go”

I hadn’t seen it comin’

I wish that I’d ‘a known

Soft smoke is billowin’, billowin’ up

The train whistles a fluted sound

And up eternity’s track we go

Leavin’ this earthly ground

I’d like to have known my passage was booked

The fare paid…my departure planned

For I was still battling courageously

When from life-to-death I spanned

So here I stand on the departure docks

And into eternity I’ll go

But I’ll leave part of my heart with you

So you will always know…

THAT I LOVE YOU

Sadly missed by,
