Bertha Stafford Obituary
“Cookie” Bertha Hazel Stafford 74, of Jersey City was called home on Monday, October 14, 2019.
“You never said I’m leaving,
you never said goodbye.
You were gone before we knew it,
And only GOD knew why.
A million times we needed you,
A million times we cried.
If love alone could save you,
You never would have died.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still.
In our hearts you hold a place
That no one else could fill
It breaks our heart to lose you,
But you didn’t go alone.
Part of us went with you,
they day GOD took you home.
