May 1, 1943 – July 4, 2020

To Roz

God never had a kinder soul

ever in his keep

She joined him Independence Day

for her eternal sleep

Her life was blessed and filled with love

all friends and family know

On her journey up to heaven

she didn’t have far to go

She lived between the mountains

in a pretty valley town

Just outside of Carbondale

with Herefords all around

A family full of Pioneers

hers settled this great land

She leaves with us her legacy

held safe here in Gods hand

With Tom she raised her family

a fine one rooted strong

To carry on her journey

now that she is gone

Their roots here in this valley

are as deep as Sopris high

Along with them we shed a tear

as this valley says goodbye
