Obituary of Maria Cruz Hirmiz

A Golden Heart

With tearful eyes
We watched you suffer
And saw you fade away
Although we loved you dearly
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating
Hard working hands at rest
God broke our hearts to prove
He only takes the best.
It’s lonesome here without you
We miss you more each day.
Life doesn’t seem the same
Since you’ve gone away.
When days are sad and lonely
And everything goes wrong,
We seem to hear you whisper
“Cheer up and carry on.”
Each time we see your picture
You seem to smile and say
“Don’t cry, I’m in God’s keeping,
We’ll meet again someday”
