She had the following poem she asked to have presented at her funeral:.

I’d Like to Make a Difference…

God has given me a place on Earth To be here for a while. I hope that as I’m passing through I will make somebody smile.

I want to make life easier For all the ones I meet. I ask God for His blessings To the strangers on the street.

I hope I’ll never fail a child If I can help somehow. I want to be as generous As my resources will allow.

And when my life on earth is done It will be my final plea: Let someone, somewhere think or say “You made a difference to me.”

Bosley Funeral Home in Lebanon is in charge of arrangements.
