Valerie, Lynn and Amanda, I consider myself to be a lucky person for knowing your mother. She was beautiful inside and out, she was so loving and caring about everyone and everything. She raised three remarkable Young Ladies who have all of her remarkable traits. Pinky will be missed by so many people from all walks of life. I can only pray for you all to be able to get through this terrible situation. I'm sure you will with the help of family and friends. If you girls are in need of anything just ask. Sending Prayers and Support. Love, Monica

Lead Me Gently Home

Words and Music by Will L. Thompson, 1879
(07 Nov 1847 - 20 Sept 1909)


Lead me gently home, Father,
Lead me gently home;
When life’s toils are ended,
And parting days have come,
Sin no more shall tempt me,
Ne’er from Thee I’ll roam,
If Thou’ll only lead me, Father,
Lead me gently home.

* Refrain:
Lead me gently home, Father,
Lead me gently home, Father,
Lest I fall upon the wayside,
Lead me gently home.

Lead me gently home, Father,
Lead me gently home;
In life’s darkest hours, Father,
When life’s troubles come,
Keep my feet from wand’ring,
Lest from Thee I roam,
Lest I fall upon the wayside,
Lead me gently home.
