Perhaps you sent a lovely card or sat quietly in a chair. Perhaps you sent a floral piece, if so, we saw it there. Perhaps you prayed a sincere prayer or came to pay a call. Perhaps you sang a cheerful song, if so, we heard it all. Perhaps you spoke the kindest words, as any friend could say. Perhaps you prepared a tasty dish, or maybe furnished a car. Perhaps you rendered a service unseen, near at hand or from afar. Whatever you did to console our hearts, by word or deed or touch. Whatever was the kindly part, We thank you, oh so very much. You have freshened our desert with flowers and rain. You have come in the sadness of winter and gloom, and sung of the gladness of summer and bloom, and so in our grief, we fervently cry. God bless you friends for just standing by. Thanks to each of you, The Family

If Myrtle was with us today, she would tell us that she lived a great life, fought a good fight, did what she needed to do and kept the faith. John 14:27 I am leaving you with a gift, peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don ’ t be troubled o afraid.

I am home in Heaven, dear ones; Oh, so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty In this everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, Every restless tossing passed; I am now at peace forever, Safely home in Heaven at last. Did you wonder I so calmly Trod the valley of the shade? Oh! but Jesus' love illuminded Every dark and fearful glade. And He came Himself to meet me In that way so hard to tread; And with Jesus' arm to lean on, Could I have one doubt or dread? Then you must not grieve so sorely, For I love you dearly still; Try to look beyond earth's shadows, Pray to trust our Father's Will. There is work still waiting for you, So you must not idely stand; Do it now, while life remaineth - You shall rest in Jesus' land. When that work is all completed, He will gently call you Home; Oh, the rapture of that meeting, Oh, the joy to see you come!

A mother is special; She ’ s more than a friend.

Whenever you need her, she ’ ll give you a hand. She ’ ll lead you and guide you in all that you do. Try all that she can just to see you get through. Good times and bad times, she ’ s there for it all. Say, head up, be proud and always stand tall. She ’ ll love you through quarrels and even big fights; Or heart - to - heart chats on cold lonely nights. My mothers the greatest that I ’ ve ever known. I think God mad my mother like he made His own. A praiser, a helper, an encourager too. Nothing in this world that she wouldn't do. To help us succeed, she does all that she can; Raised a young boy, now into a man.

I want to say thank you for all that you do. Please always know, Mom, that I love you! Your Son, James Kibble, Jr.
