A light is from our household gone.

A voice we loved is stilled.

A place is vacant in our home,

that never can be filled.

The Golden Gates did open.

A gentle voice said, “Come”.

And with farewell unspoken,

we said, “Thy will be done”.

May the Blessed Virgin greet her

and present her to her Son.

May Her Sacred Heart receive her,

as it was, God’s will was done.
