Gary Tucknott wrote this poem in tribute to Helen Ford after her death earlier this month.
For Helen
IF I did not Believe,
My heartfelt wish would
still be that Heaven exist.
If only for You.
Struggles – yes, But to me
you shone!
Encourager, Creator of
beautiful poems.
Knowing you was ever
my blessing.
But We do Believe, You
and I.
I Believe that you have
gone Home Helen.
I Believe you will see His
face.
I Believe many treasures
await you.
Such a kind and generous
soul.
Remembering your laugh
and ridiculous jokes,
True treasure, My treasure.
God bless the friend to so
many.
