Wayne, You’ve just walked on ahead of me And I’ve got to understand You must release the ones you love And let go of their hand. I try and cope the best I can But I’m missing you so much If I could only see you And once more feel your touch Yes, you’ve just walked on ahead of me Don’t worry I’ll be fine But now and then I swear I feel Your hand slips into mine God took him to his loving home God saw him getting tired, a cure was not to be, He wrapped him in his loving arms and whispered “Come with me” He suffered so much in silence, his spirit did not bend He faced his pain with courage, until the very end, He tried so hard to stay with us but his fight was not in vain, God to him to his loving home and freed him from the pain WAYNE MOORES Born In: GLACE BAY, Nova Scotia Passed in: SYDNEY, Nova Scotia Passed on: July 24th, 2016 Wayne Moores, age 74, of Glace Bay, passed away suddenly on Sunday, July 24, 2016, at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital, Sydney.
