Aunt Margie

Tomorrow we will say goodbye to one of my favorite aunts...Aunt Margie. Such a sweet sweet soul. She is the one who reminded me most of my grandma Brugh with her caring spirit. Always willing to give whatever she had to whoever needed it. She had love like you would not believe. She was one who greeted you with a kiss everytime she saw you. I love you Aunt Margie and I will miss you forever but I know you are with Jesus and with grandma and with Rodney. I know they all greeted you with open arms and you will be watching down on us until it is our day to see you again. My prayer is that your sweet spirit and your love lives on through us.

My page has turned
a chapter's closed
a brand new page
for me unfolds
and my new page
will never turn
nor for the old page
will I yearn
for my new page
is Heaven, you see
I'm home with Jesus
for eternity.
