IN MEMORY OF BUDDY
ALLEN
Dear loved ones, lets try to
think this way.
God took this half opened bud
to bloom in heaven
Because He thought it was so
rare and more beautiful
Than any He had ever seen.
He transplanted this bud above
Because He knew it would
make
The most beautiful flower
He had ever seen
And for the dear loved ones
left behind
You know when your work
here is done
And you cross to the other
side,
You will see that most beauti-
ful flower
Growing in Gods garden.
—Mrs. Theron C. Jackson.
