This is what I wanted on the back of the prayer card:
If tears could build a stairway

If tears could build a stairway and thoughts a memory lane I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again
No Farewell words were spoken No time to say good-bye
You were gone before I knew it And only God knows why
My heart's still active in sadness And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you No one can ever know

i was SO close with my nanny and im going to miss her dearly. thank you ALL for letting me talk about this. i dont know what im going to do w/my time and w/out her.

i love you nanny :lovewings RIP
