In life's ever flowing journey There often is some pain. But, my friend, We need not fear, For your loving Savior Is always near. He gives us grace to bear The problems that pass our way. Yes, even on that very rainy day. Sometimes when the rain of life Comes to each one, We feel for a moment We cannot see the sun. But God's promise to you is Look up and see, The love He shares with both you and me. For, my friend, A rainbow will appear After the storm clouds of life have cleared. -Donna Larkin Events Memorial Service Thursday, October 21, 2021 11:00AM The Springs Funeral Services - North 6575 Oakwood Blvd. Colorado Springs, CO 80923 Phone: 719-207-8611
