You will live forever in our memories and hearts.
It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
The pain you suffered and endured
Would have conquered a weaker soul
Others would have long before given in
But, you, Rubbie, fought to win
You left us many memories,your love is still our guide
And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side
We are constantly thinking of things you'd say
In your one and only way
Our family chain is broken, and nothing feels the same,
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again
In tears we saw you sinking,
We watched you fade away.
You suffered much in silence,
You fought so hard to stay.
You faced your task with courage,
Your spirit did not bend.
And still you kept on fighting,
Until the very end.
God saw you getting tired,
When a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you,
And whispered come to me.
So whenwe saw you sleeping,
So peaceful free from pain.
We could not wish you back
to suffer that again.
