In Tears we saw you sinking,
We watched you fade away,
You suffered much in silence,
You fought so hard to stay.
You faced your task with courage,
Your spirit did not bend,
But still you kept on fighting
Until the very end.
God saw you getting tired
When a cure was not to be,
So when we saw you sleeping
So peaceful, free
from pain,
We could not wish you back
To suffer that again.
We love you always,
Until we meet again.
Memorial services will be held in Victoria on Saturday,
Leave Condolence
