In Memory Of
Barbara Ro Jean Walker
January 7, 1931 - March 31, 2011
When the love of words and music
Brings voice to your soul
And your heart sings as your fingers play
There is a joy shared with the Creator of it all
Your melody spoke more than words could say
When notes were released as waves upon the air
With ebbs and flows in harmony with others
The story of your life clearly unfolded ...
You lived life with a flair
Searching from the annals of our past
To know how life has been lived
And then wanting to share
You traveled the world over
Finding interest in places
But, more than that,
Joy and friendship in people
With your presence came talent
With your heart, grace and kindness
By us all left behind,
You will surely be missed
We will listen for you, Barbara -
As your heart sings and your fingers play
Send down your sweet melody
Amidst showers from Heaven
