Chapan Nora,
Of all the special gifts in life however big or small,
To have you as our chapan was the greatest gift of all.
The day God called your name, it broke our hearts in two.
But heaven needed another angel and he picked you
No matter how much time goes by, we'll miss you everyday.
But it's okay to rest, you taught us to be okay.
We'll cherish all the love and memories with you.
Give chapan Lloyd a hug and kiss from us too.
