ALEXANDER (Sandy) HESHKA July 10, 1919 - June 5, 2009 In His Light In His light God looked around His garden And he found an empty space And then he looked down upon the earth And saw your tired face. He put His arms around you And lifted you to rest God's garden must be beautiful He always takes the best. He knew that you were suffering, He knew you were in pain, He knew that you would never get well on earth again. He saw the road was getting rough And the hills were hard to climb So He closed your weary eyelids And whispered Peace be thine . It broke our hearts to lose you But you did not go alone, For part of us went with you The day God called you home. Forever in our hearts Inga and family Dear Dad ... The hardest thing in life to bear Is to want your Dad and he's not there. With a heavy heart and a whisper low Bless you Dad, I miss you so. As long as I live I'll always be glad That I was your daughter And you were my Dad. Forever cherished and loved Joanne
