A beautiful Angel is all that is here, saying Oh Lord, please leave me here, not ready to leave but has to go, wants to go back but God says no. A husband and children, grandchildren and friends, a meaningful life that suddenly ends. An angel is what she was meant to be. Now think of all that she can see watching over her family night and day saying " I Love you" in her own special way. In the night we sleep and day we cry while she watches us from her star in the sky!
