Joyce I. Freehling

Joyce I. Freehling

In loving memory of our beloved mother and grandmother, Joyce I. Freehling.

1932 - 2017

God looked around His garden and found an empty place

Then He looked down upon this earth and saw your tired face.

He put His arms around you and lifted you to rest

God’s garden must be beautiful

He only takes the best.

He knew that you were suffering

He knew 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.

Sadly missed and dearly loved,

Debbie and Family and Gary
