GOD'S GARDEN
God looked around his garden And found an empty place,
He then looked down upon the earth And saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you And lifted you to rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best. He knew that you were suffering
He knew you were in pain. He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again. He saw the road was getting rough And the hills were hard to climb. So he closed your weary eyelids
And whispered, “Peace be thine”. It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn’t go alone, For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.

She loved gardening, taking care of her grandchildren and

grandchildren were her joy and passion. Each one held a
special place in her heart.
Mary was preceded in death by four siblings, Lois Burnette,

She leaves to cherish her memories a husband of 63 years,
