"Funeral song"



Greetings John and Doves,
  This is my mother 77, Aunt Josie 79, and sister Karla 42 practicing for My Aunt Betty's funeral. Aunt Betty went to be with the Lord this week and wrote the words of this song (to an old Billie holiday song from the 40's) they sang many times in church. Also see below a small tribute I placed on Face Book after she passed descibing the moment of Death.

My Aunt Betty Sarver passed away last evening at 7:28 pm. She was 91 and just the day before was driving and painting. She was on no medications, had no arthritis, no pre existing conditions, no walking aids needed, just a very healthy 91. She was a perfect example of living a full Christian life. I remember about 15 years ago she went to get an oil change and was recognized by a worker who was my foster brother from years past, he told her it was on the house and refused any money. She thought about it as she went home and concluded he didn't have the authority and she immediately wrote and sent the check. This is who she was. On Monday night she had been lucid all day and very much in control of her thoughts. She suddenly threw her right hand in the air, when asked if she needed anything ....she just said Heaven. The room of witnesses started singing an old Nazarene Hymn (Softly and Tenderly) and she crossed over before the song was ended. What a great example of a Christian life.....even in death.
