Poem
You were special in all of our lives teaching us many lessons we still use today
Your memory will grow in all of us, as we hear the words you’d say
Your legacy will never be forgotten, as your memory carries on
These are the toughest times for all of us, hard believing that you’re gone
You were supportive and encouraging the way you touched our lives
You were here for all of us, you made our mom your wife
You cared for us all, and loved us as your own
Getting to know us, learning us, and even teaching us right and wrong.
We know you’re in a better place, with suffering no more
We think of you every day, and know she will miss you more
Tears have cried, hearts have ached
No more suffering! No more pain!
God has called you home so this aint the end,
We too will be there one day, we will all meet again.
