With Broken hearts we watched Dad fly away to Heaven today
Our family of angels who'd gone on before came and took him away
We know he'll be resting in the arms of God, watching us every day
And he'll patiently wait, as one by one we meet again some day
The family would like to thank HospiceCare for their wonderful care of Bob.
