Carolina Chiappetta Chauvin

God saw that you were tired and  a cure was not to be.

So He  put his arms around you and whispered, “Come with Me”

Although we loved you dearly, we would not make you stay

We know God loves you greatly,  and you’re home with Him today.

A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest, God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
