WOODGATE
WOODGATE - In loving memory of our mother, Marion Woodgate, who passed away April 22, 1996.
In our hearts your memory lingers,
Sweetly tender, fond and true,
There is not a day, dear mother,
That we do not think of you.
There's a sad but sweet remembrance,
There is a memory fond and true;
And a token of affection mother,
And a heartache still for you.
Always loved and sadly missed by daughters Cindy, Wanda, Joey and Linda.
