Gone to Heaven

Written By: Lori Lawton Rienhardt

February, 2023 after the death of her brother, Leo

Eight older brothers I held so dear, One by one they began to disappear, First went Dell and then went Ron, So close together Bert, Bob and Jon, Then Fred and Larry leaving only one, Now that Leo is gone there are none.

Four older sisters I held so dear, one by one they began to disappear, First went Dixie and then Mary Lou, and many years later Janey went too.

Being youngest was great when I was small, but now that I’m older it’s no fun at all, now there’s just Rosey and me, someday in heaven we will all be.
