A Life Remembered - Samuel Mendez Barros

Yesterday Michele and I attended her Grandfather's funeral service in Murrieta, CA. The service was very emotional for me in many ways. Listening to family and friends tell their specific memories or stories of their loved one Samuel Mendez Barros was very moving. I really commend everyone who could get up and say a few kind words and hold it together. Dina, my mother-in-law, gave a great speech over a slide show of images to a life remembered.
Samuel M. Barros will be missed by many family & friends.

Program from yesterday 4.10.10

"God Saw You"

God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be
So He put his arms around you
And whispered "Come to Me"

With tearful eye
We watched you suffer
And saw you fade away
Altough we loved you dearly
we could not make you stay

A golden heart stopped beating
hard working hands at rest
God Broke our hearts to prove
He only takes the best.
