The the Bell Family: God saw you were getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered, "Come to me." With tearful eyes you watched him and saw him pass away. Although you loved him dearly, we could not make him stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to you, He only takes the best.
