In memory of my beloved mother. My husband Michael and Myself may live hundreds of miles away, but our love transcends distance. You will forever live in our hearts as a rememberance of an immortal presence. Memories of you will continue to enrich our lives and the world.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.




We will treasure the memories of time shared with you.
