Poem for Bethany


In Loving Memory of
Bethany Nicole Rivas
09/01/85 - 03/07/05

A million times we’ve needed you,
A million times we’ve cried.
If love alone could’ve saved you,
You never would have died.

In life we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still.
In our hearts you hold a place
No one else will ever fill.

It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you didn’t go alone.
Part of us went with you,
The day God took you home.

Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
God broke our hearts to
Prove to us,
He only takes the best.

We’ll miss you
