I saw your face in a dream
Your hands were soft to touch
You smiled at me and walked away
The light shown brightly around your face
And God was by your side
I knew that you were now at peace
Mom we miss you more than you can know
Love Forever and for Eternity
Linda & Debbie

Mom I cant believe its 2 years since you went to Heaven, I miss YOU soooo very much....A poem for YOU
You filled my day with rainbow lights
fairytale and sweet dream nights
A kiss to wipe away my tears,
gingerbread to ease my fairs
YOU gave the gift of life to me.
and then in love YOU set me free.
I thank you for YOUR tender care,
YOUR deep warm hugs and being there,
I hope that when YOU think of me,
a part of YOU YOU will always see...
I love and miss YOU forever.....

Deb, I have so many long ago memories of your Mom. She was a great woman. Growing up with you and being in your house all the time are times I won't forget.
I last saw her on the RIDE van that the woman next door takes to the Senior Center every day. She would always wave out the window to me. Whenever I see the Van I think of her. I hope she is with my Mom talking about us. Like we are here talking about them. I miss my Mom everyday too. There is nothing like a Mother.
Love, Evie xo

Dear Mom,
This will be my first Mothers Day without you. I know how hard it was every year to find the right thing for you. I know now that all we ever need is to let each other know that we love and care for each other. My day will be sad and I will think about you as I often do. I will love you forever.
Happy Mothers Day in Heaven.

Dear Debbie, I'll always remember the good times and good food at your house with Josie making gravy, stuffed artichokes and tuna packed in OIL (all that Italian food this Irish girl loved). She had this look she'd give us if we were acting up but always with a twinkle in her eye, which would make us laugh. May your mother rest in peace with your father and brother. I'm blessed to have known them.
Love, Janice
