Please share your thoughts and memories with the family in the online register book at andersonbethany.com Cremation was under the direction of Anderson-Bethany Funeral Home and Crematory. Land of Endless Day I close my eyes and look far away,To a land of endless day. Where people are always happy,And in their heart there is an eternal song. The Lord is praised all day long.Little flowers bloom everywhere. There is never a stormy cloud in the sky so blue. The Lord stands on the golden stairs,Keeping watch over me and you. As the sun rises, We will let our spirits soar, Until it reaches heavens door.Let go of all things, That binds your heart down here. Just breathe a praise and know the Lord is near. The Lord is coming to claim his own. So this is what I see,When I close my eyes, And look far away. To a land of endless day. Phoeba Jean Graham
