I am home in Heaven, dear ones; 

Oh, so happy and so bright!

There is perfect joy and beauty 

In this everlasting light.

All the pain and grief is over,

Every restless tossing passed;

I am now at peace forever,

Safely home in Heaven at last.

The family would like to acknowledge the outpouring of love, kind words, prayers, flowers, condolences and loving thoughts to Vanita.
