“A Beautiful Flower Gone on Home”

The sun has risen and set on another beautiful flower.
The season of living, loving, dying has come and gone.
All todays, yesterdays and tomorrows are no longer important
For the flower has reached its maximum growth and moved on to glory.

The ship that brought her to this earth has returned to take her home.
Without a word to those around her, she closed her eyes and was gone.
That smile that dazzled the world has gone on to meet the king.
For Yvette René Mills has taken her wings.

With fond memories she will always be alive in our hearts.
As we often wonder why she had to so quickly and suddenly depart.
Knowing her as we do, we will continue to praise and worship our great King.
No more pain. No more laughter. No more just wishing for things to change.

Yvette René Mills has taken that long journey home
There is no reason for us to sit here and mourn.
Remember the good times and all that she enjoyed, and always keep her wrapped close in your hearts.
Nothing left behind to hold her down, she moved on into that great void.
