In loving memory of our beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, Nellie R. Barger, who passed away 12 years ago today, November 29, 1998.

When I left this world without you

I know it made you blue.

Your tears fell so freely,

I watched, I know this is true.

While you were weeping

Days after I passed away

While all was silent within me,

I saw you kneel to pray.

From this wonderful place called heaven

Where all my pain is gone.

I sent a gentle breeze to whisper,

“My loved ones, please go on”

The peace that I have found here

Goes far beyond compare

No rain, no clouds, no suffering.

Just LOVE from everywhere

You need not be troubled

Just stay close to GOD in prayer

Someday we’ll be reunited

My love, HIS love surrounds you always,

EVERYWHERE
