Hi Mom your kids.

Mom,
You kept us safe and happy throughout our early years.
You wiped away our childhood fears.
You kept us warm when we were cold.
You kept the secrets children told.
You tried to teach us rather than scold.
You always made us feel young even as we get old.
You loved our children without condition.
Each and every new family addition.
You loved your flowers, you loved your lord.
But most of all it was children you adored.
Thanks for all of the loving memories.
Now rest in peace as you please.
Love,
David
