Christopher Stroup, obit, 11-12-21
BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE

In loving memory of Christopher Stroup whose birthday is July 22.

God’s Garden

God looked around His garden and found an empty place

He then looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face.

He put His arms around you and lifted you to rest,

God’s garden must be beautiful; He always takes the best.

He saw that you were suffering,

He knew that you were in pain,

He knew that you would never get well on earth again.

He saw the road was getting rough and the hills were hard to climb

So He closed your weary eyelids and whispered “Peace Be Thine.”

It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn’t go alone

For part of us went with you the day God called you home.

Love you and Miss you more than words can say.

Mom, Dad, and Sister
