ROBLES -- Georgia Georgia, We knew little that morning That God would call your name, In life, we loved you dearly, In death, we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you But you did not go alone.

Our family chain is broken And nothing seems the same. But as God calls us home one by one The chain will link again. . . Love you always my love, Love Orlando and all of your adoring children and grandchildren
