Heavy Heart...


Heaven got Another Angel Tonight
Marie Forstner  June 24, 1951 ~ August 28, 2013


The roses aren't as pretty
The sun isn't quite as high
The birds don't sing as sweet of a lullaby
The stars are a little bit faded
The clouds are just a little more gray
And it feels like things won't ever be the same

Heaven got another angel the night you left this world behind
Heaven got a little better the day that it took you away from me
I'm missing you tonight
I'll see you again sometime
For now, I'll close my eyes
And dream of heaven tonight

The beaches aren't as lovely
The sky isn't quite as blue
Still, they're sweetened by the memory of you
The rain is a little bit colder
The fire is never quite as warm
Still, it seems that heaven isn't all that far

Heaven got another angel the night you left this world behind
Heaven got a little better the day that it took you away from me
I'm missing you tonight
I'll see you again sometime
For now, I'll close my eyes
And dream of heaven tonight

I'm spending a little more time now with the things that mean a little bit more
I'm noticing the wonders of this world
I love with a little more hope now
I live with a little more peace
Cause I understand how precious life can be

Heaven got another angel the night you left this world behind
Heaven got a little better the day that it took you away from me
I'm missing you tonight
I'll see you again sometime
For now, I'll close my eyes
And dream of heaven tonight


Although I did not get to go to Easter last year,
Aunt Marie was the life of the party.
She brought paddle ball for everyone and had a contest.





This sketch was done by Aunt Marie.



The Theme of our Celebration was Marie's love of Nature.
Butterfly's & Flowers





Everyone made a Memory board with pictures



Andrea didn't think she would be able to get though saying anything without getting upset.
She wrote a beautiful tribute to her Mom.











Aunt Marie would have been so happy to see all the Life at her Party.
Her Grandson and his happy face.




It's not often they are all in one place.
We took this opportunity to get all the Forstner Brothers and Sisters.


One with all Eight.


It wouldn't be a Forstner Party without someone falling off the fence.


COUSINS










It was a great celebration of life.
It is not as often as we would all like that we can get together.
With so many far and wide, it only happens so often.
It was sad to say good bye but a wonderful celebration of Life.
You will be missed Aunt Marie.
