Ella
Ella you were such a faithful friend
A blessing to your children
For on you they could depend
A heart so warm and cheerful
Even till the very end
We who stand today are tearful
Thinking back on who you've been
Those you touched are gathered round you
Heavy hearts remember when
You were there to share their burdens
With a touch of fun thrown in
You and Tom were like two pillars
Lifting up a house of love
With a garden planted round it
Bearing fruit from all you've done
You have shown the light of kindness
From the Lord to show the way
None of what you had was wasted
What you had you freely gave
Giving hope that won't be shaken
Something death can't take away
You are in the arms of Jesus
He has overcome the grave
We are blessed and we are thankful
Even though in pain today
We will be forever grateful
For your love, our faithful friend
