God saw Sherrod was getting tired and a cure was not to be. So, he put his arms around him and whispered come to me. With tearful eyes we watched him suffer and saw him pass away. Although he fought a good fight and we loved him dearly, we could not make him stay. A golden heart stopped beating. God broke our hearts to prove; he only takes the best.
