Family and Friends

I’m Free

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free, I’m following the path God laid for me. I took his hand when I heard his call, I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work, to play. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I’ve found that peace at the end of the day. If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Ah, yes, these things too I will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My Life’s been full, I savoured much, Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and share with me, God wanted me now, He set me free. By: Janice M. Fair-Salters

The family of the late Landon B. Foster would like to extend their deep and sincerest gratitude for all of the cards, calls, texts, Facebook messages and expressions of love during this most difficult time. We pray that God will bless you beyond measure. Please continue to pray for us in the days to come.
