No words can express how deeply Love has touched my life. She was a natural sister to me. Excellent advice was given even when not requested, love was dished out in total heaps, friendship given unconditionally. To all family members, draw closer together as you travel through life with memories.

To the family of Joshalyn Mcneil

God's Flower Garden

It's hand to lose the ones we love, To see the sweetest and the kindest gone while others are left to stray!

But if we had a garden with roses fair and bright we'd often pick the loveliest and think it to be right

and so it is with jesus in his earthly garden here; he often picks the fairest flowers, the ones we love so dear

The flowers that are picked by him will never fade away we know they'll live forever and we'll see them some sweet day

With our deepest sympathy Steenie and Family
