Ruth said I値l call them my folks
Companions they値l be
On my Christmas card list
Names scratched on my calendar
Scraps of paper in my pocket
Simeon, tiny and ancient one
You blessed a thousand lives
or more
in your sojourn of 10 days
You waited for the king
And became
a voice sent deep
into my wilderness
Ruth said I値l call them my folks
They値l be home to me
Carved thru and thru my heart
Voices rambling on my phone
Chunks of memory in my story
Simeon, your God痴 my God
I値l rest next to you |
Wiebe, Simeon
Simeon Luke
Wiebe was born on November 18, 2004 in Thunder Bay, ON. He was born with a
very rare genetic disorder called Restrictive Dermopathy. He spent ten
precious days here on earth, with his parents by his side. God used Simeon's
short life to touch many lives and bring Him glory. Simeon is survived by
his parents Scott and Angela Wiebe, grandparents Larry and Karen Wiebe and
Wayne and Eleanor Barron as well as extended family. A funeral service will
be held on Saturday, December 4 at 12:30 pm at the Avila Chapel at Lakehead
University, with a reception following the burial. Those touched by Simeon's
life and death are welcome to attend.
"The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; Blessed be the name of the
Lord." ~Job 1:21
