Today was the viewing for Ralph. I was really sad to see his body lying there, but I know that he is in a better place. It just makes me so thankful for all of the time that I have been given with all of those that I love.
I love you guys.
Here is a cool poem that was passed out with his picture next to it.
God Saw He Was Getting Tired
God saw he was getting tired
And a cure was not to be,
So he put His arms around him
And whispered, "Come with me."
With tearful eyes we watched him suffer,
And saw him fade away;
Although we loved him dearly
We could not make him stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands to rest;
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the Best!
You will be missed Papaw.
