Dear Mom It's seems like only yesterday you said to put our things away. You were always there when we stood or fell. We'd try it on our own, and you'd wish us well. As you taught us, the more we learned our love and respect was more than earned. You always knew when we needed you, what was false and what was true. You helped us out over and over again you were wonderful as a wife, mother, grandmother and friend. So special you were in your own way. How we'll always love you, how we'll pray that where you are, you'll know how much we care and treasure all the memories that we can share. "Be strong and go forward" you'd tell us to do being ever so grateful to have known you. We feel bad for ourselves, but not for you. If it's what He planned, it's what He must do. All your cares are gone and you'll feel no pain. The love we all shared, will forever remain.
