FAETZ, GEORGE - In loving memory of George Faetz who left us suddenly October 21, 2005. Pennies From Heaven I found a penny today Just laying on the ground But it is not just a penny, This little coin I found. Found pennies come from Heaven Angels toss them down When an Angel misses you, They toss a penny down. Sometimes just to cheer you up, Make a smile of your frown. So don't pass by that penny When you're feeling blue. It may be a penny from Heaven, That an Angel's tossed to you Keep sending those pennies George I love it when you do Because words can not express, How much I miss you. Loving you always and missing you more, Your loving wife Wendy, Geroge Jr. and Scott
