               I Shed My Earthly Bonds

I shed my earthly bonds, of mourning and of 
grief, 
to hide among the stars, then to worlds beyond 
belief. 
My mission here is finished, at a seemingly 
hurried pace, 
and yet I've fought the goodly fight, I've ran a 
timely race.
 And though my life seems ended, my body now at 
rest, my 
spirit stands before my LORD, to face the final 
test.

I leave behind my treasures, the loved ones of my 
life, 
the ones who stood beside me, in my bitterness 
and strife.
 Oh, dear ones, I thank you, for standing close 
to me, and
 helping me in the blindness, of things I could 
not see. 

I thank my friends and neighbors for also being 
there, 
for their loving kindness, and showing that they 
care. 
So softly now I leave you, in the hands of GOD 
above, to 
bless, hold and keep you in HIS abiding love. 

Ah, lay me down so gently, beneath this weary 
sod, 
for I have shed my earthly bonds, and have 
touched 
the hand of GOD.

WITH THE EAGLES




She soars with the eagles now
her soul is set free...
gliding on a feathered wing.

No pain, no fears, or worry
She's in Great Spirits hands...
being held lovingly
Carressed by the sun, wind
and a gentle breeze.

Many burdens and strife...
Much sorrow and pain...
She'd felt in her life.

This journey was filled 
with many lessons to learn,
so many times her voice left
unheard...
Reast peacefully, our dear
Shannon...now a child of
the earth.

I sent out a note to every one

that had been praying for or

involved with Shannon on the

morning that she died. The

notes and gifts were overwhelming!

I have added a second page called

Shannon's gifts to display artwork

and kind words everyone has sent.

I'm sure her family will appreciate

all of it. If you'd care to drop them a note
