Rest In Peace: Honorable Douglas E. Robertson, THIS I KNOW Esquire (author unknown) (Nov. 20, 1937 - May 26, 2005) (Dedicated to my dear loving husband and best friend - Jeane Robertson)

I know not much, but this I know, Spring always follows winter’s snow. And I know, too, that night gives way Every Sunrise to dawning day.

There has to be somewhere a powerful mind That has planned the seasons & made mankind. And I shouldn’t doubt that he’s watching there And that His judging must be fair.

And when He made the plan, for you and me, For all things to full circle be, I’m sure He made a plan for life to be once more, And not to be the opening and closing of a door.
