In Memoriam In loving memory of Lona Rae Jensen Jonas: A Better Place, There''s a place I''ve never seen beyond this world we know, A place I''ve only heard of but someday hope to go--- It''s not on any map, there are no roads to take me there, but it''s a place Of perfect peace where hearts are free from care, and though I understand some may be Saddened when I leave, One day, we all will meet again-- That''s what I believe... When it''s time to travel there, I think I''ll wear a smile, I''ll say good-bye to those I love, but only for a while, knowing there are others who have traveled there alone, Who cannot wait to greet me and to whisper "welcome home."
