"One person can make a difference - Jesus did!”

ONE GOOD MAN or ONE GOOD WOMAN... striving to become even better day by day. Together, we make a family.

Beloved Matriarch

Idris Egbert Hebdon
7 January 1921 - 17 January 2012

Blessed Parting II

The linger longer method
Is also a plan divine.
It’s how grandma proved to all of us
That she would never whine.

Perhaps you can remember
When grandpa passed away;
It was grandma who lead the music
For the closing song that day.

Some would say she’s stoic.
Others would say she’s strong.
Even others would mention giving.
None of them would be wrong.

When you think of departed Grandma
Think of bread or a popcorn ball
And you will certainly realize
That she isn’t dead at all.

But she continues living
Just not in this particular place.
She’s with Keith and the other loved ones
Who have ascended to greater Grace.



(poem by Terry)
