Weep not my precious love ones,for God has called me home to rest. To you it may seem too soon, but to his judgement He's knows best. I have journeyed home to be at a much better place. So fill your hearts with joy and wipe the tears from your weary face. My spirit remains present, even though I have departed from thee. For I have journeyed home to a special place, where the lord has prepared just for me. Ron McLin
