There Are No Words
There Are No Words - Helen Steiner Rice

There are no words ...what can I say?
At last her sweet soul winged its way
To peace and freedom in the sky
Where never again will she suffer or cry.

It's all part of God's great plan ...
Which remains a mystery to man.
We cannot understand His ways
Nor can we count our earthly days.

But who are we to question and doubt?
God knoweth well what He's about;
He knew she longed to "go to sleep"
Where only angels, a vigil keep.

The pain of living grew too great
No longer could she stay and wait;
She did not want to leave you, dear,
But she had finished her work down here.

So she closed her eyes and when she awoke,
These are the words the Master spoke ...
"Welcome, dear child, you are Home at last,
And now the burden of living is past."

"There's work for you in My Kingdom, dear
And you are needed and wanted here."
So weep not, she has just gone on ahead,
Don't think of her as being dead.

She's out of sight for a little while,
And you'll miss her touch and her little smile,
But you know she is safe in the home above
Where there is nothing but Peace and Love.

And, surely, you would not deny her peace ...
And you're glad that she has found release.
Think of her there as a soul that is free,
And Home at last, where she wanted to be.

Our deepest sympathy to the family. Praying God will be with you all in this difficult time.

"Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear."

Praying for Carolyn's family and friends in their time of loss.

I have known Carolyn for a lot of years. Will miss her a lot. She was even more than a friend. We were like family, my younger sister.

Red was an exceptional nurse, teacher, and mentor. She had helped me out of many a sticky situation. She shared her knowledge and experience and helped mold me and was always looking to help me advance in the field. I think I have enough jewelry that she handmade to start a small store. She was a very straight forwad to the point person. I loved her and she will definitely be missed.

My heart goes out to Carolyn's family. She and I worked together many years ago at Park Place. She was my preceptor as a new nurse and I can honestly say 20 years later that no one impacted my career like she did. She was always kind and patient with everyone and had her patients best interest at heart no matter what. Although we did not speak frequently, she is always in my heart. I know she is a beautiful spitfire of an angel today and blessing everyone in heaven with her sweetness!

Blessings to you!
