You never said you were leaving,

We never got to say “goodbye”

You were gone before we knew it,

And only God knows why.

In life we loved you dearly,

And in death we love you still,

In our hearts you have a place,

No one will ever fill.

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.
