The Brightest Star
By June Hall
A star appeared not long ago
And began to shine its light
This one came so softly
But knew the time was right
To mark each place and make it special
With the warmth and glow it gave
Not leaving any empty spaces
Every moment meant to save
You felt that its appearance
Was branded in your soul
And consistent on every occasion
To make or exceed its goal
The star became the brightest
And took no claim to be
Just naturally doing its task on earth
So all the world could see
The darkness came so sudden
And caught us by surprise
The star we loved and saw each day
Was blocked from our eyes
The whole world was in shock
When the light went out that day
For that star was in its prime
Not ready to go this way
Today that star still shines
Brighter than it ever did here
In Heaven it has a special place
For we always feel it near
No other star will shine as bright
Or touch our lives as sweet
But we can certainly rest assured
That one day we will meet
Love to you always,
Aunt June

I do hope if you have not read this book that you will consider doing so. It is truly touching and a contains true details of an incredible life, who innocently and willingly gave her life for others. This year of 2014 will mark the 8th anniversary of Nina’s death. In March of this year we are hoping for the trial,that will bring final closure. Purchasing this book will bring me closer for the Foundation to become a reality, as funds have been lacking to get this Foundation off the ground. Read and be blessed by this extraordinary life. Thank you ! Judy Ingram, Nina’s mother.
In memory of Nina’s birthday which is Oct 1st, if you have not purchased this book, it will certainly inspire you, and give you more details about the kind of person she was. Thank you! Judy Ingram
