“ Your life was labor and love, your love for your family true, you did your best for all of us, we will always remember you”

Ecclesiastes 3 : (1-8)
There is a time for everything
    and a season for every activity under the heavens:

     a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh,
    a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
    a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend,
    a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.
