A month has gone off rather fast;
Our sister Clemencia's no more;
The spinster's voice - now thing of past;
She entered heaven's door!
She won race to the Narrow Gate;
She's first amongst the living sev'n;
She's gone to meet our Lord on date;
Her soul is in heaven!
She served God as a teacher prime,
And earned the limelight like her dad;
We could not stall her life this time;
To leave, she was too glad!
A life of struggles, she had faced;
A righteous life, throughout, she led;
She helped all others, as she gazed
Heaven-ward until dead!
She memorized important dates
Of births, deaths, marriages all life;
She was the one who closed the gates
Of house, even in strife!
With life of prayer, spent on earth,
She smiled and wept, comforting all;
She left a void unfilled, by death,
By heeding to God's call!
The Good Shepherd will happy be,
As He receives this lady's soul;
Her life was quite exemplary,
As she attained her goal!
‘May our dear sister's soul, RIP in Christ Lord! '
Most lovingly dedicated by all siblings and families, near and dear ones

Though our Dear Sister, Miss. Noeline Mary Clemencia is no more yet her quality of living and works for people make her alive.

It is a great tribute to her.
