For Marie - Our Hugabear.

Hugabear, Hugabear, where have you gone,

Off to a new world with a new dawn, 

The love here has vanquished the endless night,

Everywhere is a beautiful radiant light, 

Jehovah awaits, standing there tall,

To pick you up from your last fall. 

The purest perfume, a fragrant rose,

As slowly the gates of heaven close.

No more will you feel the pain of this earth,

Jehovah has given you a brand new birth. 

We miss you down here sweet Hugabear,

So many of us here, your parting share, 

Sweet memories you have left behind,

Everywhere, all over for us to find.

The emails from heaven we cannot read,

We will however feel them when we need. 

We know you will send them down our way,

We know a prayer you’ll quietly say,

Hugabear, Hugabear, where have you gone,

Off to hear the heavenly song, 

No more pain and no more fright,

Just to wonder at the beautiful sight, 

Walk right down the grand hall,

Meet St. Peter and possibly St. Paul, 

The banquet awaits you we do suppose,

With great delights that only heaven knows, 

For joy, laughter and full of mirth,

Jehovah has shown you, your valid worth, 

He’s welcomed home, our sweet Hugabear,

No longer need she have a care. 

No longer walk around with eyes half blind,

Jehovah is great and he is kind, 

He welcomes you home, fills your every need,

With love and tenderness your soul does feed, 

There you are now in the eternal day,

We will miss you greatly along our way.
