WENTZELL, Scott William
WENTZELL - In loving memory of Scott William Wentzell, February 7, 1968- October 8, 1998.
God saw you getting weary, The cure was not to be.
He took you in his loving arms, and whispered "Come with me", You suffered much in silence, Your spirit did not bend, You faced your pain with courage, until the very end.
You did not deserve what you went through, And so he gave you rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
Things we feel most deeply, are the hardest things to say, My dearest Scott, I loved you, in a very special way.
If I could have one lifetime wish, one dream that could come true, I'd pray to God with all my heart for...yesterday... and you.
Loved Forever- Forgotten Never.
Mother Marilyn Whitehead, sister Kimberly, brother Andrew, (Nanny and Grampy) Bob and Shirley Whitehead.
