Poem From the Heart . . .
Of all the blessings in my life,
I count most gratefully
The special friends I know and love -
God gave them all to me.
He gave me friends to share my days,
My good times and my bad,
Close friends who make
My life worthwhile
When I feel lost or sad.
He gave me friends for me to love
Who love me in return,
Good friends who never hesitate
To show their warm concern.
So not a day goes by without
A sentimental thought
Of all the special things we’ve shared
And the joys
My friends have brought -
And not a day goes by that I
Don’t say a thankful prayer
That God
Will keep my special friends
Forever in his care.
Now that I am gone my friends,
You no longer see or hear me.
Just search inside that heart of yours,
And that’s where I will be.
-Brenda McClelland

I am so sorry for your loss !! I'm just now finding out about your Mom/Grandmother/ Friend/ Brenda's passing. We went to Des Moines Tech together. She was always so kind to everyone and especially to those who felt left out, like myself. She will be missed very much.
