In loving memory of my Beautiful Mother
Although your soul is at rest and your body free from pain, this world would seem like heaven if I had you back again.
Always in my thoughts, no matter where I go. Always in my heart because I loved you so,
However long my life may last, whatever land I view, whatever joy or grief be mine, I still remember you.
I'm Loving you today, yesterday and always, from here to eternity.
Dear Lord,
Would you Hug my Mom and place a kiss upon her cheek and tell her it's from me?

I am sending a dove to heaven, with a parcel on it's wings.
Be careful when you open it, it's full of beautiful things.
Inside are a million kisses, wrapped up in a million hugs.
To say how much I miss you, and to send you all my love.
I hold you close within my heart and there you will remain.
To walk with me throughout my life, until we meet again.
I miss you so very much Mom. What I wouldn't give to feel your arms around my neck so tight and to feel your sweet kisses on my cheeks.
I love you Mom!

The most wonderful mother in the world. I miss you so very much. The best part of me left the day you left this world. I can't put into words the loss I feel not having you here. I want you to know I carry on feeding your beloved Hummingbirds. I love you!

God saw you getting tired
A cure was not to be,
So He put his arms around you
And whispered, "Come with Me."
With tearful eyes I watched you
And saw you fade away.
Although I loved you dearly
I could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating
Your tender hands at rest.
God took you home with him that night.
He only takes the best.
I miss you so very much Mom, I love you!
Love always,
Rita
