Sanette

I remember the sanctuary aisles

Where I first met his welcoming smile

The two of you standing side by side

Serving as ushers, letting grace inside

This summer brought a heavy goodbye

A sudden quiet in the morning sky

But through the sorrow, your spirit stayed true

I am so grateful for the friend I have in you

Oh, Sanette, on this November ninth

We celebrate the warmth of your beautiful life

Seventy-nine years of a gentle grace

Bringing a peaceful light to every space

You are patient, encouraging, loving and kind

The most supportive soul I could ever find

I want you to know as the autumn turns cold

You are deeply appreciated, a treasure to hold

You always have a helpful hand to lend

A caring heart on which I can depend

Through every shadow and every tear

Your comforting presence is always near

You wrap us in love when the days get rough

I can never say thank you quite enough

You listen so softly and speak with such care

A beautiful friend who is always right there

Oh, Sanette, on this November ninth

We celebrate the warmth of your beautiful life

Seventy-nine years of a gentle grace

Bringing a peaceful light to every space

You are patient, encouraging, loving and kind

The most supportive soul I could ever find

I want you to know as the autumn turns cold

You are deeply appreciated, a treasure to hold

I know the doors feel a little different this year

Without him standing beside you here

But look all around you, the love hasn't gone

We are right by your side to help you carry on

You've given so much to the people you know

Now it's our turn to help your heart glow

Oh, Sanette, on this November ninth

We celebrate the warmth of your beautiful life

Seventy-nine years of a gentle grace

Bringing a peaceful light to every space

You are patient, encouraging, loving and kind

The most supportive soul I could ever find

I want you to know as the autumn turns cold

You are deeply appreciated, a treasure to hold
