Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Great-Grandmother
What a big responsibility
But without a complaint
She was always our saint
And truly our guide to stability.
God has a plan to take us all home
and everyone has his time
We didn't agree
And sent Him our plea
But to Him she had sung her last line.
Respect, love and admiration
Were hers from everyone for sure
We were blessed with her love
Sent from God above.
To know her was truly to love her.
