God took you home where he thought best
No more your smiles we see
Gone is the face we loved so dear;
Silent is the voice we loved to hear.
The love you gave us in our hearts
And it shall forever be
Treasure that will always light our lives
And share through all eternity.
Mother we will miss you
With your kind and loving way,
But you are happy now with Jesus
And we'll meet you in heaven someday.
To all who knew her, she leaves a legacy of warmth, love and memories of a full life she lived. She will be sadly missed bv her loved ones and a host of friends but never forgotten.
