Lyra,

As we write our tributes
of her through our tears
she is at peace now
Not crying from pain
anymore

She has a new home
where there is no more
pain, sickness, or hurt
Where there is joy
forevermore

God gave her and
her love for us to grace
these pages of blue
Her kind and loving words
will live on in our hearts
forever

Fly on without pain,
dear Angel Lyra

Even today, her words are in my heart, as they will forever be. A lovely tribute Ethel, and one I'm sure she's read, and is smiling down upon.

At last she has found eternal peace
and her pain is gone forever.

God rest her soul!

I admit once again I couldn't read all the way through, not in this mood. That Lyra touched so many poeple is tribute in itself. That said this is wonderfully thoughtful tribute to her memory.
Ethel you're the sweetest as i mentioned in reply to one of mine..and this is just another example of it. Beautiful words and peaceful thoughts which is what i come to expect when i open your posts..hugs

When you write like this, never worry of the technical forms. It is just right and very heartfelt; all your warmth comes right through. Ken
