You walked this earth a soldier,
In every sense of the word.
We watched you fight your battle,
Your courage was your sword.
Cancer was the battlefield,
Your life was the war you fought.
And as the battles grew harder,
“Tomorrow” was your only thought.
Through the battles you fought brave,
But in the end you lost the war.
Yet, never questioning your commander,
“Why me God or How much more?”
Now you stand with an army of angels,
No more battles, thunder or rain.
For the fallen shall be forgiven,
And the Lord will ease your pain.
The Soldier that we honor here,
Has shown us all the way.
So walk the valley bravely,
And listen to what she’d say…
“God loves me”
